My weaknesses have been clothing, books, and photographs.
And kitchen gadgets.
I got mad when I moved and dumped a ton of mostly useless items.
I've only had to replace two things from the kitchen... why I threw out a
great glass pitcher, I'm still not sure.
I've been forcing myself to pare down. The high-end resale place is
selling my clothes... I've made about $60 just on winter stuff.
I took a lot of my books to the used book dealer awhile back,
then put many I didn't read in the bin at work for the old people at the
residential facility at Hospice.
I actually threw out over 2000 photographs just after I moved.
Blurry things, doubles, negatives, etc.
I pulled out some for family members and kept two photo boxes.
But the rest went into the trash. I was actually kinda proud of myself.

And art supplies. Holy crap, I hoard art supplies. I still have my
orignial Prang watercolors from 8 years ago. They're awesome and the
formula changed, so I'll never be able to replace them.
The color is still so vibrant. Love.
