I have also fallen in love with this kitty. [link] He has eyebrows and a beautiful tail. I cannot have another kitty.
I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

I save my eBay boxes and envelopes, but at least I can say I do reuse them. Because I do do a fair bit of eBaying.

Oh, I'm only critical of him because in the 7 years I've lived with him, he's sold like ONE item on eBay. The amount of boxes in the office (firehazarddeathtrap) would have you believe he has a thriving eBay business.

The clutter in our house is almost entirely mine. What clutter TCG has is in the basement where no one but him sees it. I do not save boxes though, unles I have an immediate use for them.

I have boxes and good intentions.

After I proclaimed my faith in the microwave pressure cooker I had a feeling that this would be the time it exploded, but it did not! And now I have chili. Nom.
My clutter is all mine. It does not have any reason for being or excuses, it just is.

We decluttered a lot when we moved into this apartment almost a year ago. I'm not too concerned about decluttering before the next move, other than trying to convince CJ to go through his stuff.
Separately, someone jacked my debit card number and hit my account for about $1k. My credit union marked it as fraud before I even realized what had happened. But I haven't paid rent yet, so I'm headed to the credit union in the morning to sign the fraud papers and get them to credit the money back.
Since I'll be there anyway, I'm going to see about starting the home purchase pre-approval process. I'm already in knots of nervousness. In so many ways, I'm not ready, financially, for this. But this is my best chance to get into a better financial situation, so I'm going to take the leap.

Ugh on the fraud, Suzi. Good luck with the pre-approval.

Ugh, Suzi.
The only good thing about living paycheque to paycheque is that a fraudster have to get me between payday and mortgage day to get any money out of me.
Every once in a while I get all purgey and get rid of stuff, but not as often as I like, or need to.
My hurdle is that I can determine what I want to do with something, but I lack the helpful gremlins who will then take said stuff to the thrift store or the recycling place.
Connie, are there any charities in your area that will come pick up? We have a chain of thrift stores that charities sell to and so there are several who will come pick up your crap.

Make him get rid of all but three boxes.
Dear Tim, you will appreciate the MATH of this. You only get to keep 3x the number of boxes of things you have sold on eBay in the last seven years. That is a super fair number and you have to recognize the validity of it.
