    I kept loads of notes and course books up in the attic for God Knows how many years. I kept saying 'I might want to refer to those one day'. One day some years ago I slung the whole lot into the 'paper and cardboard' recycling skip at the local tip.

    I can honestly say I never gave them another thought since :D.

    Like most of the world, these days if I need to find something out, I use Tinternet.

    We all need to be firmer about the 'just in case' junk we keep - without exception I've never regretted any of the stuff I've thrown away. If I ever think about the stuff at all, it's with gratitude that it's no longer cluttering up the place.

    Now, if I could only get OH to throw out his mountain of junk, we'd be getting somewhere ...... but I must set a better example myself first :o.

    Well done jwil, you seem so organised. I've still got loads to list but lacking motivation a bit at the moment.
    I am still busy kondo' ing the house...well, I've made a start. So I want to get my house in order ASAP and then I might be able to see the wood for the trees.
    I sorted out a bag of stuff for charity/clothes recycle box last night.
    I got rid of 4 new toiletry items to a school tombola. So I'm definitely getting rid of some stuff. :)

    Tc has been posting in the Kondo thread so I guess she's ok.

    Well, I have been unavailable for a while due to unforeseen circumstances.
    Now we are trying to find a new sense of normal.
    So, hopefully over the next week or so I will be setting new goals and objectives. I might even start a new diary, new diary-new start. :)
