This is the first time I've posted here although I love the declutter thread. It gets me so motivated...but what finally made me post was a video on YouTube where a lady was talking about a friend whose pipes burst in her basement...and not water, but SEWAGE!  Needless to say, she was completely grossed out but had to start the cleaning process of all that was there. She said, somewhere in the process she had a giant burst of clarity and thought,"do I want this item enough to clean poop off it?..".  So, that's going to be my mantra for decluttering! Would I want to keep this enough to clean poop off it?....  maybe not foe everyone, but pretty clear for me😄😄😄. Thanks, ladies, for this thread...

Sorry....new at this. It was meant for the "What have you decluttered" thread. And I don't know how to move it. Oh well.

You can hit "inappropriate' on the post you want to move and in the 'reason ', ask Mods to move it to where you want it to be.

My question would be "do I love this house enough to keep it?"
