Stuff and Stuff

Betty · 06-26-2007, 05:36 PM

There is stuff everywhere. EVERYWHERE! I need to clean my stuff up and get rid of a bunch of it. I'm sentimental though - and not very good at getting rid of stuff.

Other people get rid of stuff and I say - Hey - that's good stuff you're getting rid of. Maybe I'll take some of your stuff and make it my stuff.

I keep thinking - I'll have a garage sale and get rid of alot of this stuff - but it's been years and still no sale. Sigh.

Stuff. Does sound funny doesn't it?

Gosh, I love my stuff. I'm not going to try to get rid of it! I bought it because I wanted it. I always feel like the world is anti-packrat. Harumph. Well, I'm a packrat and I'm proud!

And I'm going to need a new storage unit soon!

ETA: I have a pair of socks I bought in 1979! Yes, I still wear them...

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

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!!!'

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.

I'll be willing to bet I rank very close to her.
