Oh my.....I feel bad. I managed to de clutter the place one room at a time and finished about a year ago. I have so much space it's unbelievable. But, yes...there ARE still boxes on closet shelves. Mostly my mom's stuff that the kids might want someday. I DON'T want it which is why it is in boxes.

Now, the resident Mr has NOT even begun to deal with the garage. That is Off Limits to MY decluttering. He doesn't even see the need to do it. (male thing?)

The Attic is still chock FULL of the daughters stuff and she has moved out (again). BUT...it is 110 degrees F up there and it can wait til winter when it isn't so hot out. She does WANT to do it. Might actually NEED some of it at her new place. I'm more than willing to help. I'm MUCH more ruthless than she is!

Fabric scraps...I never just toss them (unless they are really small). I take them to the local Sr. Friendship center for them to make quilts and sunbonnets out of. The books go to the library used book sale. I only get rid of books that I am sure I will never want to read again and make room for more (from the used book sale!)

I did try to get the son to help me with the garage...he turned me down cold. Said he never wanted to SEE that garage again! LOL

A lot of what is in there is tent camping stuff. We have an RV/5th wheel now, so tell me why I need this stuff? Cause I can't bear to think of never tent camping again.....and I just am not ready to sell the 'Circus Tent'. 16x16 Medieval pavilion....I did TRY to sell it...but took it off the market. Just can't. I LOVE that tent...and it only takes up 4 LARGE plastic tubs....LOL
