One of the reasons I hesitate to move is how much stuff I've accumulated. Twenty years ago, we moved to a house that was twice the size of the previous one. Lots of cupboards and closets and storage space. It was about half full when we got moved in. Fast forward 20 years. All the cupboards are full. We've just accumulated more stuff! I swore I was gonna die in this house just so I didn't have to move again and that may happen
My husband just moved his dad and stepmom into assisted living. He cleaned out there house (they did nothing before or after the move). Omg! He found a box with about 30 cell phones in it! Ever since he went thru that whenever I'm looking for something and see a bunch of junk in a closet, I pull it out and either put it in the donation box or throw it away.
