[quote=Anonymous]This is hard, people hoard. I told my parents straight up, I don't want any of their stuff. I don't like their artwork, their yearbooks, furniture, or their precious book or CD collection. Once my mother was explaining to me how special this one book was (first edition but crummy condition) and I looked her in the eyes and said "When you die, it's going to goodwill or the trash, and if you think I'm going to write book collectors or libraries you're wrong." Worked miracles, but also going through a death of her own, she realized how much work it was to clean out. Over the years things have been purged to the housekeeper, donations, or the trash. She even on her own called some libraries and asked if they wanted her books. She was indignant when they said no. Her apartment is almost clutter free. I'm very proud.[/quote]
