Throw it out....throw it all out! We moved last year after 16 years inthe same house....I am still boggled by the sheer amount of crap we had acumulated. I threw away hundreds of bags of stuff! I've become very minimalist! This house we are only going to be in for 3 or 4 years so I know I'll have to do it all over again. Packing is one of the worst things to have to do! You have my sympathy.

Packing for a move is the worst thing in the world. I hate it!! Everytime I move I accumulate more stuff. I have been here now, in this home, for 9 years, look around knowing I plan on moving in 8 more years when I retire, back to my second home state of Arizona. When I moved back here to Michigan 24 years ago, I didn't have all that much. Now!!! A lot more!! My problem is I have things around me that I love, enjoy.. yes material items, but still loved by me. I don't want to get rid of anything! When I move again it will be a nightmare.
I feel for you Judy. Not an easy task. |

On a serious note , Judy when I moved from Bklyn I had to clean out 40 yrs of memories of my parents. Talk about stuff whew.. I gave to the salvation army and several local churches and threw out bags and bags of old stuff. I still have a lot of stuff that I couldn't part with..It is now sitting in my garage.. next move out it goes lol

I have a hard time letting some things go. Some one told me once, that if I'm never going to use it again..then take a few pictures of it and let it go. That way it won't take up near as much space. Usually it's not the item itself...just the memory it carries.
