Do you keep everything?

In the throws of cleaning our loft out and the amount of stuff is shocking.

Baby clothes 35years old, valentine's card's,kids drawings the list goes on most of it is spoiled due to dust and damp in the loft.

Teddies we have 5 black bags full off old teddies.

We are going to keep a few small reminders of of kids when little but the rest is going.

I was shocked when I found out that cheesy garlic bread wasn't an emotion. Apparently its just...food!

That was a rough therapy session.

It varies. Sometimes I can be very sentimental, everything from train tickets or receipts to photos and emails.

Other times I can be quite the opposite and just want rid of everything.

No I don't. I have a clear out a couple of times a year and things that mean a lot go in a treasure chest. I do have a scrapbook of receipts, tickets, photos etc from big relationships, try and keep certain things but I hate... stuff. I go on a stuff rampage to remove it.

I have a huge board for mementos. Mostly gig tickets.

I had to move house over four years ago.

Giving up the books I bought was bloody tough. No where to put them and I crated them for donation at a second hand book store. I’m glad I did but still have the odd pang about not having some of them.

I have all my old school reports, first thing I made in woodwork, various pics of my mates and me playing on bikes and footie. Still in contact with some from my first school. Still have my bbc micro from over 40 years ago (works).

I'm not sentimental about possessions, but I have very strong emotions and feelings about people I care about, even the ones that let me down.

This.

I've got the treasure chest, my me box that's got a time capsule of memories and silly things inside it. A broken match that's meaningless to everyone else kind of stuff, and that odd little thing or trinket that turns yu into a soppy lump of goo.

I’m sentimental to a degree. I don’t keep everything because I don’t have the space and I don’t like the clutter.

I have two memory boxes. One for the kids that has special little bits in, like the clothes I brought them home from the hospital etc. the other has keepsakes of my mums that I can’t part with.

Other than that it’s just pictures. I don’t mind throwing stuff that I know I don’t need.

Yes, I’m ridiculously sentimental. And for that reason, I left everything behind.
