[quote=Anonymous]I have never been a spare minimalist regarding "stuff." But in the past I managed to stay on top of the load of stuff throughout the house. acquisitions, art projects, out-of-season clothes, Lego, shoes, dog toys, "important papers than can't be filed away" and so on. Here is the #1 barrier, and I'm asking DCUMers for tough talk to help me over the hump: much of this stuff is things my children are sentimental about or fond of, and the remainder of the stuff are things I'M fond of for sentimental reasons. Example: Ava's little pottery bowls she made last year in Kindergarten, spread out on the mantel. She is proud of these, not indifferent. I have NO problem, none, throwing out ill-fitting clothes and the like. I have realized that I'm up to my waist in items that somebody feels affection for (or uses occasionally), and this makes is so hard to toss!!! Help? [/quote]
