I am just about to declutter loft as have promised ds he can have it as his 'hang-out zone' when he is ten (in March). He will have to share it with me as it is my craft area as well but I have my fabrics and stuff all put away in drawers etc.Not a problem
The problem is that I also keep the 'memories' boxes up there and there are just too many of them; ds and dd's first slippers and shoes, christening stuff, clothes, books, drawings- piles of stuff. However, when I try to get rid of stuff I feel almost grief sorting through it. Sadness that the baby years are gone and I won't have any more children etc. I know logically that I am being daft as I am adding more stuff every year but I am finding it very hard to 'let go'
