I was so embarrassed when i need to relize at one point i let myself get so big
Whenever we move (which has been 3 times in the last 24 years), if we have boxes unopened since our last move we throw them out without even looking at the contents. I can’t even tell you what all has gone to the trash but apparently it’s nothing we really needed very badly.Yep, sure did. I just moved 700 miles and that was the perfect opportunity to purge lots of stuff.
That’s probably a useful tip under normal circumstances but 95% of our belongings are going to remain boxed and stored until we move again in (hopefully) a couple months. So if I took your advice, I’d have nothing left!Whenever we move (which has been 3 times in the last 24 years), if we have boxes unopened since our last move we throw them out without even looking at the contents.

We'll be moving in the upcoming months and our purge will be starting in the next couple weeksYep, sure did. I just moved 700 miles and that was the perfect opportunity to purge lots of stuff.
I'm not either, but we've lived here for 18 years and two kids, things tend to accumulate.I’ve never been one to keep a lot of ‘stuff’. My husband on the other hand..
I suffer from this as well.I really need to do this, but I'm awful about keeping things. (I have two weaknesses - sentimental stuff, and stuff I can envision re-purposing.) It's very organized clutter, but deep down, it's still clutter.
