[quote=Anonymous]Regarding the “lots of boxes” of mixed stuff- don’t try to empty them one at a time, where a lot of “keep” might not have a home yet. Instead, empty out 4 or 5 boxes and sort it out- books, office supplies, toys, mementos, etc. Do a first cut of putting away things to keep that have a place and purging trash or giveaway. Then put the remaining keep stuff back in a couple of boxes. Goal is to reduce #of boxes by 25-50%, and have the remainder be better organized and labeled. Also- PPs with stuff from parents and grandparents, I hear you about it being hard to purge. I think it’s okay to go slow and just keep some things boxed. I have found that every few years I can go through those stored items and I’m ready to let go of some of the things or have a better way to honor something. The collection slowly dwindles.[/quote]
