Do you have too much stuff?

After 12 years of living where I am I find it hard to find room as I've just accumulated a lot of stuff - both useful and some that is just junk. I find I keep things like the boxes things came in.

It's hard to let go of some things. Things that may come in useful or that which has sentimental value. Yet in most cases we don't need it.

Oh Lordy Yes, far too much stuff. I have big massive clear outs but the space soon fills up again.

Re: Do you have too much stuff?

Me too. My family and friends all tell me I am a hoarder, which I confess to. I have tried to be ruthless but there is so much I've bought over the years that it would kill me to throw away.

Re: Do you have too much stuff?

Yes and it burdens me .
Worse is paperwork that I try and get rid off newspapers stuff in general.
Things I have had in my life at least four or five saddles ,Tons of horse stuff I will never use again ,
shells I have collected from beaches all over the world .
I am trying to give some stuff to my sons if they want it ,
but my grandchildren don't ride so a lot is no good to them.
I really just wish it would all go away it overwhelms me.

Re: Do you have too much stuff?

No I dont have much stuff now. When I came home after being ill my life was in a massive skip in the car park. Had to start again so only have what I need now. Feel better for it.

I have got a shed in the garden to go though but most of it will go in the tip.

Re: Do you have too much stuff?

We have just moved from a smaller house to one that is larger. We had packers in so much if it resides in/has been dumped it what will be our new dining room.

Nightmare. You can't find even basic things like cookware, cutlery - but we will get there.
