Wow! How fab! new job and new start. Think positively: you are clearing away what is no longer great for you in order to make spaces for all the wonderful things to come. How exciting
Great to declutter too, frees the mind to think clearly and most of the stuff we hoard we don't actually need anyway-plus side is that you can also make a few quid.
It is onwards and upwards from here then.
What does the new job entail? Is it outdoors or indoors?
Am VERY happy for you
