It's always a little sad sorting through the remnants and memories of a lifetime. Hopefully this stuff will bring pleasure to others down the road. This reminds me that I need to clean out the shed and the garage this weekend.

Personally I mark everything with a price tag with what I paid for it and what I think it’s worth. My kids say it’s all going in the dumpster when I die!

When we had to deal with my parents' stuff, I was shocked at how much some items sold for that I thought were virtually useless. And other stuff that seemed like it had some value to me went unclaimed. Guess that shows what I know.

Every time I see a portable dumpster backed into a driveway, I am broken-hearted at wondering what is being lost to the world . . . .

Stuff like that makes me realize just how much of a consumer culture we live in. Throw-away culture too. My dad rubbed off on me in that I am always trying to fix things that break or wear out even when it probably just makes sense to buy a new one because I don't want to be "wasteful". My sister is just the opposite - I used to go over to her place and pick through all the perfectly good "stuff" that she was tossing just because it had something wrong with it that it easily fixable.
