By skyforbes We are (hopefully) the last generation to inherit someone’s bad shopping habits or compulsive collecting of random knickknacks. After clearing out 47 cans of Comet out of my MIL’s basement and finding mine and my siblings mummified umbilical cord remnants in my mother’s closet I am bound and determined to make my estate settling as easy as possible.
No Beanie Babies or dessert spoons, no hoards of cheap cleaning supplies or “might come in handy someday” lying around. I don’t want my kids to have to root through years of bank statements and junk mail for anything important. Declutter and organize now while you can.
