the big clear out


Well I have at last collected all my stuff from the ex's house. My car is full of boxes and still got to do the storage unit. Where on earth am I going to put everything? How on earth did I collect so much STUFF? How do you get rid of everything? Here is a selection of a few of the random things I have found. Why am I still keeping all my wedding cards and love letters?? Do others throw these things away???? How do you choose? And surely I could never throw away one of the first paintings that my daughter Min painted for me? I would value any advice on how you've chosen between which sentimental items you keep, and which you throw away for good!

I've read somewhere that if you take pics of all your keepsakes and then put the photos in a photo album, you can have all your memories to look out without all the keepsakes taking up so much space. I say take the keepsakes that you absolutely must have and put in safe storage and the rest, just close your eyes and discard!! Well, it seems like a good idea at the time.
