I'm all for using the good dishes etc.

Stuff is just stuff and I appreciate what I have

For some reason I'm like this with clothes more than anything. Since I work from home there's never a good reason to wear the good sweater, or the nice shoes . . .

So true now that so many of us work from home. I've gotten over wearing sweat pants on the job, but I still don't use the "very best" clothes most of the time. Maybe this week!

Guilty, but reforming. My wife and I have declared ourselves recovering hoarders. Something beautiful resides only in a box, never used, should be used or given away. You can't use it if it is hidden. Get it out, use it, love it. If you break it, it died like a soldier.

So, so true. And I love the soldier analogy! I'm about to embark on a purging of old stuff in boxes. Now I'll look forward to giving it away to someone else who *will* use it.
