Declutter.........I started a few years ago after I read you don't need actual things to remember persons by. They live in your heart and you don't need to hang on to stuff. So I thought about that and felt it was time to 'free' myself from stuff I didn't use anyway. I asked my kids if they wanted to have it but they didn't.
I took some to the thrift store, I gave some away and I still have a few things.
About 3 years ago I also lost all my digital pictures because of a HD crash. They couldn't be recovered. I learned to live without them
Two things I can't toss: quilting stuff and cook books
