Lydia's not the only star of last week

Remember my post on exfoliating my life and how less is more? I apologize that I never followed up, but I DID get rid of a lot of belongings whilst I moved. Well, the author of Makeunder my Life emailed me and asked me to share my story. So, I sent her a few pictures and a short explanation of what I accomplished in my move. She posted my exfoliation last Friday! Click here and scroll down to the entry from "Laura" (you may recognize my purple dresser...).

But in all honesty, I enjoyed getting rid of things I didn't use. Brooke commented on my post and said exactly how I feel:
I have to say... that since I have been exfoliating, every once in a while, I'll think "oh, I used to have a {insert tossed item here}" and it has never been heartbreaking, or even remotely upsetting. Because then I think "But was I really going to keep that {insert tossed item here} for 4 years just so I could use it on this one random occasion?"

Hi Laura,

So nice that you are still on the exfoliating high! If you want to do a more traditional makeunder just let me know. I'd love to have you as a guest blogger next week... :)
