I tend to hoard school/office supplies too. I created a bin of school supplies so that I could shop my stash first when school starts. It has been VERY helpful.
I watch your videos every morning and it makes me more productive! Today I finally threw the old old OLD alcohol bottles away, that I didn't use up for at least 4 years!! I moved with them. Twice. Never threw them out, because "alcohol never gets bad", "it's worth so much money" and "I will have a cocktail party and then I'll need it." YEAH RIGHT. Haven't had said party in 4 years, don't care about a party, don't want random expired alcohol and syrup in my house. Threw them out. And now I have an empty shelf that I could put baking stuff in or let it stay empty... Greetings from Germany, Sophia, you are doing so good!
What we do with our stuff... As a younger woman, I would clear away some stuff each year and rearrange what was left, but still there would be too much stuff. As a younger woman, I thought I had all the time in the world to methodically refine my stuff and make my household more efficient and elegant. As a middle-aged woman, I began to pay for working way too hard in my youth. Despite my efforts, I lost more vitality with each passing year. My long-term plans to deal with my stuff were never realized. Instead, I had to deal with new stuff -- and dealing with the new stuff required more energy than I had left. As an old woman, I regret nothing more than the fact that I will leave so much stuff to be dealt with by my loved ones.
I donated about 90% of my clothes today. Mostly cold weather things I have been hanging onto and never wearing. I now live in Florida and I need maybe one cold weather outfit for the two or three cold days here. I should have given them away before moving down here three years ago. I now have half a closet, three dresser drawers and a big plastic bin EMPTY! I couldn't put away the clothes I wear because all the room was taken up by clothes I never wear. My husband took it all away to Habitat for Humanity this morning. I am so happy and pleased with myself. YAY!!!
Hey Sophia! Another great job done plus $17 in your pocket! As your office is a relatively new venture and pretty tidy, I think you have demonstrated very well how we all need to go round and declutter every few months or so to prevent the mega clutter monster taking over. Love your top and scarf. Tres chic! Tfs.
So right about those cheap sticky notes! I've made the same mistake .... over and over and over because they are cute. Now I only buy the name brand Post-its. Xoj
I've watched this series a few times now and I love it every time. I have been sooo productive this weekend thanks to you! 3 large donate bags and a few small garbage bags! I feel so much better. 😍😊
love this, reaching deep. wanted to share a tip, i take those (8x10) plastic envelops with the fold over tops with the button or Velcro every time we take a trip, or even a days outing. i put our tickets, reservation confirmations, new brochures mementos matches or tavern coasters. we don't have to go nuts looking for anything.. when we get home i have a package for scrapbooking.
I don't know what it is but i love to see you decluttering and organizing, it's so relaxing and I always end up tidying up something on my own home after watching them. keep up the good work!!!😊😊
It's insane how many paper products we can accumulate! This challenge is really changing our lives here at home :) Thank you for always being inspiring 💕
Maybe you could take photos of your spring cleaning lists and post them for us?!?!?!? I'm disappointed that you didn't go through ALL of your pens!!! LOL Enjoying this series so so so much. TFS and take care.............
😄 you make me laugh - mostly because I see so much of myself in you - the PENS the sarcasm and your candour are a joy to watch . You inspire me to go through my house but it will just take me a bit longer but I will get there in the end. Keep up the good work x
If you can do it, so can I! I am sure I have equal amounts of office stuff... I can use it up... Ya right, in like 30 years?!? Your donation recipients must love you! Looking forward to tomorrow's video xoxo
End of last year hubby and I were going through a junk box. I found 170 dollars in an envelope!!!! Good job in the office!!! Funny how we can still find CRAP when we think it's organized.
So happy to see your video up....I was up late last night waiting for it to come out and then I saw your message about it coming out today instead....LOL Anyway, great job as always!
You did get rid of some stuff! That's awesome! I've decided instead of just watching your videos (kind of like I do exercise videos) I need to be participating as well and get rid of a lot of clutter in my house--lol! Keep up the good work!
Hey Sophia. ..great video as always...Hv an idea that you could use..Instead of keeping the green box of office supplies keep one basket with all the supplies and re purpose the green box sum where else (or trash it) ...I know u have many pretty baskets it would really look good on the shelf...
I literally just stopped the video lol as soon as she found the $17 check "I wonder how many pens I can buy with $17 I heard ink joy has new pens" Sophia Nooo you have so many 😂
Great job Sophia!! Lol....."How many pens can you buy with $17" None....you don't need them...I find myself wanting to go to see whats at the store.....really.....NOTHING....lol...its crazy...I believe its out of boredom....Ive stopped myself many of times. Thanks for sharing...
You could do a disclaimer at the end or beginning of the video like "I'm going to go through this pile and decided what to donate, trash, recycle" so that you don't have to explain what you are doing with each item. I know people get crazy over recycling. You shouldn't have to explain yourself. :) Great video!
Great job as always! books, paper pens... just wondering if you have an author inside trying to get your own attention? you are so creative and so easy to relate to i bet you could . Thank you for the motivation! God bless.
haha "I made money cleaning my house!" that happened the other when I was decluttering my mother's room but it was a 250€ check from 1999, really expired lol!
Yesterday. I was able to sift out several big bags out of my life and did not think I had anything left to donate. But packing is a good way to declutter. I ask do I want to store it then move it? Is it worth it.?

'Oh look! Pens!' I'm dying right now. You are so hilarious! Great job. You are always so motivating and honest =)

Sophia, office supplies are tough to get rid of. I love them. You are doing awesome and your shelves are going to look beautiful:)
I remember that owl journal! 😂 It's really a good idea. I am glad you are finding things you were looking for.

When you asked how many pens you could buy for that $17 check...Girl you need to be in stand-up comedy!

Another great job. You are doing amazing. Keep up the great work.
I totally agree with you on the Target Dollar Spot sticky notes. They don't stick! Cute but worthless!
I agree...Target's sticky notes are worthless...adorable, but worthless. I stopped buying them. They don't stick so what's the point.
picture with the boys is so sweet!
Wow you are brave. Like you I love office supply stuff. You are awesome! xoxo
Great workSophia👍👍👍
I literally just stopped the video lol as soon as she found the $17 check "I wonder how many pens I can buy with $17 I heard ink joy has new pens" Sophia Nooo you have so many 😂
Brilliant !!!! Well done x
Great job Sophia!! Lol....."How many pens can you buy with $17" None....you don't need them...I find myself wanting to go to see whats at the store.....really.....NOTHING....lol...its crazy...I believe its out of boredom....Ive stopped myself many of times. Thanks for sharing...
I love office and school supplies and my kids are grown. lol I did go through and donated lots of stuff and the rest I organized
Good job Sophia, only you said Inkjoy has new pens, you don't need any more pens.
Oh my gosh I understand the appeal of office supplies :)
You could do a disclaimer at the end or beginning of the video like "I'm going to go through this pile and decided what to donate, trash, recycle" so that you don't have to explain what you are doing with each item. I know people get crazy over recycling. You shouldn't have to explain yourself. :) Great video!
Keep up the good work Sophia! 👍🏾
je suis drogué et addict a tes vidéos , je me lève le matin pour les voires . Merci bcp ma chérie . Gros bisous de région parisienne .
Great job as always! books, paper pens... just wondering if you have an author inside trying to get your own attention? you are so creative and so easy to relate to i bet you could . Thank you for the motivation! God bless.
Loving these videos! Great job!
Looks fabulous!
haha "I made money cleaning my house!" that happened the other when I was decluttering my mother's room but it was a 250€ check from 1999, really expired lol!
I ended up just looking them all up too. One or two would be fine, but the rest wouldn't work.
Yesterday. I was able to sift out several big bags out of my life and did not think I had anything left to donate. But packing is a good way to declutter. I ask do I want to store it then move it? Is it worth it.?
We are up in Whitefish MT waiting for the train to go to D.C. Enjoying your vlog at the hotel. I will watch on the train with their wifi
I also have a problem with office supplies.
Sophia now you are in a declutter and organizing ecstasy, so you also put your viewers, i.e. your camera, in a box.... hilarious!
you are amazing thank you for evry thing you are doing i benefited alot from you
Sophia what a great job . ❤️🇨🇦
Sophia.....step away from the pens!!...How many pens can I buy with $17...lol
I'm surprised you didn't set up two separate bins for the boys school needs.
Wonderful!
You're doing great!!
Well done!📚📚
Way to go girl ⬆️😀
