Knowing What to Throw Out

I don’t know about you, but I have a ton of “stuff” in my house.

If I’m being honest, most of it hides in closets and I never use it.

Every few months, it’s time to throw things out.

Here’s how I decide.

First, I pick a closet, cabinet, or drawer.

Next, I dump all of it out. No cheating by sifting through it while it’s still in the drawer. Trust me. That doesn’t work.

Then, I only put things back that I would buy again.

That Motrin bottle? Yes, I’d buy it again if it were thrown out. That’s a keeper. It goes back in the drawer.

That to-go menu from 2019? No, I wouldn’t pay money for it. It’s out.
