My wife is champion of "stuff". It is ridiculous how much we have.

I think I take a close second behind your wife KB! We have a two car garage and can't use it because of stuff. The closets are full and so is the house. The sad part is I have taken trunk loads of stuff to local charities and I still have too much!

Guess I need a dumpster!

I was fairly ruthless in our recent move, but still have a good stack of boxes in the spare bedroom closet. I'm trying to be better about accumulating, don't know how long that will last.

I am terrified at the prospect of moving. We have so much stuff. Heather says we need to split our stuff into three piles: Move, Store, Abandon (Freecycle/Donate/Trash). I was telling my mom about our three groups and told her they were "move, store, keep". Nice slip.

I don't have too much stuff... I have too much sh!t.

I don't know....my family is hounding me about my stuff....claiming that I have problems....

My house isn't trashy. It is full of stuff.

I've seen trashy houses, full of dirty dishes, laundry, that sort of stuff.

Mine isn't like that.

I have to say, I love my stuff. It pains me to get rid of it.

I miss it and have regrets when I get rid of it. And, it seems when I get rid of stuff, eventually the kids say 'Hey, that was MY stuff!!!' :rolleyes:

I have been actively trying to divest my household of stuff, but I fear it's a losing battle. Our closets are practically overflowing, and it hasn't been that long since the last purge.:rolleyes:

I often look at my stuff and wonder how much of it will one day be classified as junk by me and then thrown away. Then I think that maybe I shouldn't have bought it in the first place.
I left stuff in Boston 8 months ago and I have been doing okay without it. When I send for it, it will be probably put away somewhere and not looked at very much.

...Well this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn...

I am proud of myself. I soent a weekend in DLR and didn't come home with bags of useless stuff. I bought myself a new purse and a tote bag, and that was it.
