When we last revisited “What if” items I said we’d look at getting rid of sentimental items - a decidedly difficult task.
Sentimental ideas include things like; greeting cards, baby clothing, items given to you by someone important, such as your grandmother’s china, old notes from all your high school friends, and most items that have [...]
