I cannot throw things away. Some would say I should have a yard sale, but usually I just donate to a thrift shop.

@GardenGerty I never throw things, when I have several boxes I call the local charity and they send someone to collect my boxes.

@GardenGerty Yes, it is. It would be nice to see the floor again.

My husband is the packrat in the family. So the question isn't so much ' why am I keeping it, but rather why does he think he needs it'? To be fair, over the years and our several moves, we've gotten rid of a lot of things. However, we lovingly call one room in our house the "pod", because it started out as a dumping ground for things we couldn't fit anywhere else.

@GardenGerty Well, that's really not to far from the truth, honestly.

I found some fake moneys in a draw and I forget about my initial intention when I decided to save it :-)

Actually I accumulated before lockdown. Then when I stayed home I had the time to really see what is surrounding me.

@GardenGerty For me it has been the other way around. Have been so busy with office work from home that I have not given much attention to the house. Just doing my daily routine work everyday.

My husband has many things that I think are non essential, so that is how it goes.

Good for you. I look at things and wonder why I did not throw them out long ago.

Yes of course. Sometimes I find my room being disorganized because of many things that end up making my room look untidy and I decide to sale some of thing to create some space.
