Spring Cleaning

Right around this time I start to clean.


I clean out my drawers, my cupboards, my clothes and I de-clutter.


I clean out my dishes, my paperwork, receipts and keepsake boxes. I organize my belongings.


I physically clean my home as well, scrubbing and wiping till surfaces sparkle after the layer of dust and buildup that accumulated from the year transfer onto a white cloth.


I also attempt to clean my mind. Reducing stress as the sun starts to show more and more. I start prioritizing tasks that I normally find mundane into my queue.


I clean out negativity that piles up after a year of putting in effort to people and places that no longer matter. I organized my mindset to freshen up the season with a new home, new brainwave, new me.


And come the Fall, things will start to build up and change


Then Spring will come again and I will clean.
