Having a hard time discarding items?  Repurpose them.  Send left overs home with guests on a dinner plate you don’t expect returned… pick fresh flowers for those accumulated vases and cheer up a friend.  Make a JUICE box – Just Unused Inputs, Cords and Electricals… then this stuff doesn’t clog drawers and outlets.  Ship a lot of gifts?  Shred those piles of paper and use the shreds for packing.
