@TresaOlford I've never moved, but I think it's tough. I have the same problem with junk, lol. I just can't bring myself to throw away things that are dear to me, things I've had for years, things that are a part of who I am and who I've become. To just take them and throw them away... it's difficult and sad((
I hope you're moving to a better place!
I adhere to only one rule: every year, I clean out my desk, and I have to say goodbye to something old and dear to me. Yes, it's sad, but that's how it is. The only things I don't touch are books and old lecture notes in my notebooks (just in case these notes come in handy someday, lol, but I know they won't; they just make me feel better). Although, to be honest, some notes on real estate deals and court defence tactics came in handy when I inherited some property. So anything is possible (I just hope I won't need them again).
