You have my full sympathy. One of our lighting circuits went wrong last week and we realised that we needed to clear out the attic so that an electrician could look at the wiring. We've been in this house 20 years and I can't believe what we didn't throw away-masses of cardboard boxes which housed long gone electrical equipment, 6 bin bags of kids clothes and hamster caging to name but a few. I always thought I was good at throwing stuff out but clearly I'm delusional and I just hide it!
Ugh, been there. All my efforts to travel lightly come to naught as soon as I settle in one place for a while. Why is that? (I hope it's not just the allure of advertising.)

Seems I am too!
What a horror....

During my last move, I felt the same way. One question that came to mind was how much $$ we had wasted on "stuff!"
hang in there! Carla
The more room you have, the more junk you pile up.
JG, I am guilty to some extent, the kids...goodness the stuff they collect.
Carla, TRUE! Hate to imagine that. Then there is the time in the dump...
ElP...ain't it the truth. I should live under a rock. Sometimes I think I do.
