I have too much stuff. This is not some blindingly new realization for me; I’ve known I have too much stuff for an awfully long time. But I’ve noticed that my discontent with owning too much stuff has been growing, day by day. This feeling has been exacerbated by the movement of all my now-grown children to homes of their own because, surprisingly, when children move out most of their stuff stays behind. And it grew exponentially when my brother Joe moved in with me, and his stuff was added to my own. Seriously, I can’t find anything in the kitchen cupboards anymore without a dozen things falling out on top of my head/Trish Gannon, River Journal, Politically Incorrect. More here.

Question: Do you feel that you have too much stuff? What do you do about it?
