That is too funny. I felt very accomplished with half the shit I threw out, I had at least 3 boxes full of paper. Though there are still some stuff that I don't want to throw out, why, I don't know cause its nothing really.
PLUS I still have a good bit of stuff still back home at mom's house, mainly my toys that I will never part with either. Half of those toys though, my nephews are playing with, stuff that I REALLY didn't want ppl to play with them or stuff that really aren't toys to play with period. I'm afraid that mom will lose them knowing how my nephews are with their toys.
I'm the same way with wrapping paper too. We use to have Garfield x-mas paper and I would carefully tear it off the gift and keep it. I did use the paper for certain things I created that I cut the characters out from, that was about it.
I never saw my closet look so...so...empty for a change. There will at least be one side of the closet that will have floor space showing. Good thing that I have two shelves in there too that I can place boxes on.
Another thing both hubby and I have ALOT put together are pics. He has his pics from his early days in the Army from all over, and I got my pics from home and my Army days. Thank goodness for digital cameras now, less photos laying around in boxes.
