Your sign is nice and general. I like that. All my junk fits in those categories so I have specific signs all over the house and in my shirt pocket and still fight myself to obey them. The junk is part of our collective history of being on the planet so throwing it out is like throwing out a part of myself. Each piece bring back a certain memory of acquisition or good time. Maybe when I get in my 80's or 90's I'll do better when I start forgetting where I got them!
