Plasticy fridge magnet souvenir from an African trip fell off the frige and it's giraffey leg broke off.

I've glued it before and am now thinking I should throw it away but I can't quite manage it.

It's on the top of the fridge with it's bit. It looks at me accusatorially

Other than reminding me of the trip which is not itself special, it was just a holiday, it holds no sentimental value. It's quite cute looking but I have lots of other magnets from other trips so its no big deal. It wasn't a present or anything

I'm toying between gluing the leg back on, leaving it 3 legged (which actually looks ok at a quick glance because it sort of looks like it's other leg is concealed) or throwing it away.

I know I should bin it but I can't. for no obvious reason.

So I'm not drip feeding I think I do have borderline hoarding tendencies. I'm very much 'keep it in case' in life generally - keep the jam jar/spare ribbon in case type.

I'm very pathetic. What's wrong with me.

Please give me a shove/some good reasons why I should just chuck it out. Help me.

Break all of it's legs off, and say it is relaxing on the savana. Rather like this...
