We find out when we move! Did you let go of a stockpile before you moved or did you bring it with you? I suspect I'm not the only one who has a favorite item that I can't get enough of....must have donated 50 bottles of hand lotion.

I honestly don't know how it happens, but I'm beginning to think I'm a klepto for ballpoint pens.

Can't seem to part with son's school papers & art work. Only child syndrome?

Can not part with cards, letters, notes and school memorabilia from people I love.

Seems it might be of some historic value someday, since now few send snail mail.

Books. If I get rid of even one I will miss it someday and have to buy it again.

That's it. The time has come where I have to meet you in person.

When?

Same here!
Specially if those cards, letters and knick knacks were from people that have passed on.

Books were hard to give away, but i did. No place hardly in this Gardenia....

Empty or full? If they're unused I don't see a problem.
