“Just get rid of it” my friend Ann says

“Just get rid of it”.

“No one wants it.”

“Collecting dust on a shelf means you have to clean it.”

”Sell it.”


Why is it easy for some people to get rid of things?declutter? downsize with no difficulty?

Whenever we lived in Germany in the 80’s, people were collecting Hummels like crazy.

Special curio cabinets were purchased to display them.  Some had glass shelves and lights.
