If you need it, but it again. Particularly applies to things like electric cables, boxes, stuff that’s not unique. Even clothing, keeping something in case of fancy dress, for example, is fairly futile when it can be obtained really cheaply as needed!

@Meglet - not been to a fancy dress for many years. But on the last occassion I did, it had a French theme. I used an old sheet, folded in two, stapled at the edges, with a hole for my head and a French address on the front. I'll let you work out what I was. I won and will just also mention there were at lesdt a dozen ladies in basques as can-can girls ;)

How you all doing?

I need to declutter big too much stuff and not much space having the urge to throw everything out but that's not practical is it?

saw this article - think there is some good ideas in it! (need to read it properly later)

Also an interesting comment: 'If you didn't know, or forgot you had a particular item, get rid of it'.

I keep remembering the comment posted on her about gifts
That their job has been done by being gifted so if you don’t feel the love don’t keep it

Good work Jen

I have some old work tops (7) that are too small for me and I'll not fit into again. They've been hanging in my wardrobe for a few years so message a friend at work if she wants them so will bringing them into work for her

".... This month, each of you must get rid of one thing on the first day. On the second, two things. Three items on the third. So forth, and so on. Anything can go! Clothes, furniture, electronics, tools, decorations, etc. Donate, sell, or trash. Whatever you do, each material possession must be out of your house—and out of your life—by midnight each day."
