i’m moving out soon and i’ve been in a giant empty house all summer and it has successfully driven me insane multiple times, and i’m still in the process of throwing things out day by day so every day the space i’ve known for three years is only getting emptier
so i started leaving clean laundry in a little pile, unread new yorkers in a different pile, a stuffed animal to be put in vacuum bag but rn just sits on top of an opened and packed suitcase full of stuff, a bag of things to be thrown out right besides my bed, and i‘m proud to say that my room has never looked messier
this is the one time that i’m sure somehow the mess is helping my mental health instead of making it worse

Since I’ve been here I've been leaving everything everywhere and there’s a pile of laundry in the corner and I have just step over my suitcase every time I walk in but idk there’s something about being able to make messes sometimes that reminds me I can come back and be different but be the same which is a beautiful thing

putting things back where they belong before you leave rather than leaving it for when you come back
this is a recent trick i’ve adopted, and it’s made it so much easier to keep things organized. which makes my brain feel lighter.
probably has something to do with the fact that if you’ve put cleaning off once, you’re more likely to again. also it’s just disrupting to come home to a messy room. so welcoming when clean!
(huge fan of the word girlsqualor tho)

it basically means “i’m here already, i might as well be at peace with it”
started truly believing in it a few years ago when i first moved to nashville. there are a lot of things i don’t like about my life, down to daily tasks like having to wait for a bus despite being an impatient person, up to not being proud of my own family dynamic, but i'm learning to make peace with it—this is the one life i’m gonna have, and some things i just can’t change, whether that’s for now or for a long while
