Your nieces seem incredibly cool, so my tastes must have inadvertently swung back into fashion again.

I followed your Clear Out lead yesterday, opened up my old silver trunk, and promptly threw out the entire contents. It was all stuff from my university days. I found that when I started, I'd put things aside, thinking, "Oh, I can't possibly throw that..." and then, as I got more reckless, everything started to go, and finally I was able to chuck the stuff I'd put aside at the start.

It cleared a couple of unhappy memories that I hadn't realized were still stashed in there, and I felt great as a result. So thank you.
