Tired of the new rules, Carmina closed her Google Maps account — what pushed her over the edge?

It’s been months since Carmina last posted on her Google Maps. I started doing it just for fun, exploring new places to dine and travel, and sharing those spots with others. Back in 2017, I wasn’t even blogging yet. Over the years, I received numerous email updates about changes, but in September, the removal of followers on Google Maps felt particularly strange. There’s no point in complaining about it. I decided not to close my account, as it wasn’t an option, but I did delete all the photos I had contributed over the years. I have fond memories of seeing which photos were popular and had hoped to share them with you. It was surprising to see how many views my pictures had accumulated. While deleting them, I noticed that many restaurants and bakeries no longer exist, with some marked as unknown on the map.

Clutter and Uncluttered Your Home

It is the month when you remove clutter that belongings to you and start giving to someone else who needs it.

Mananag V was telling me her two Granddaughters need a formal dress to wear for their upcoming Junior Prom and they are on a tight budget.

I found out my God Child is one of them that needs a dress. I had informed Manang V I have some formal dresses that I no longer need since I no longer attend formal party as well I have lost weight.

If, the person is not picky she can have them for herself all she need to do is alter it to her size.

I went to my attic looking for the formal dresses that I had mentioned earlier as I was cleaning my closet I have found other things I can give to her to lessens my clutter I had in my room.

I was taught by my mom it is better to give something to someone than stocking up in your room when you no longer need it.

After cleaning out my clutter and organizing my closet it became clear to me there we're other clothes I no longer need and someone can wear them and it can be in good use for someone else.

My room is now clutter free and my clutter have moved to someone else's home.

I have other friends who sell their clutter by having a block neighborhood flea market type with their friends.

I have friends who sell their clutter in the flea market.

I have relatives who donate their clothes to the Salvation Army.

I have family and friends who ship it away to people who need it through fundraiser.

No matter what you do with your cluttter it helps other people who need it more than you.
