Other than a few skeletons in my closet, I haven't found much this Spring.

Thank goodness for tax deductible items, that's all I can say. All of these clothes that aren't in style anymore have got to go, but at least I can use them as a write-off.

Ahhhh, Jean... you've hit on my topic! anything i might be able to use is worthwhile keeping unless i would need to pay storage fees! old computers? there might be an old email i would like to see again. i used to save Time magazines, especially those which might have a milestone or article about someone i feel is important. my last apt was clutter with lots of good stuff. i would collect good stuff which my neighbors were disposing. a problem occured when someone felt the clutter was too much combustible material. i spoke to city fire dept and was told the codes are vague...just create a path of unspecified width to the exit. that was easy, i was able to rearrange the clutter so that a path was unencumbered! can you believe my way of thinking is a manifestation of mental illness? it is! i don't know why i feel comfort with having clutter but i am able to sit at my desk and think! take away the clutter and i feel vulnerable. it's probably my mother's fault. she gave my toys away to a neighbor without telling me. later i saw some of those toys vandalized in the neighbor's son's room. that GI Joe cowboy which my cousins in NY had sent me one christmas. i was seven or so and i felt the doll was not what i wanted, but once it was mine, i wanted to save it. this occured almost 40 years ago and i still resent how the other kid destroyed that GI Joe cowboy. I also hate vommiting because it is a waste of food. maybe this is also manifestation of a mental illness.
