Divorce has been final since June 2nd of last year. I have decided to move out of the house. Not only is it too big, but it is too much for me to deal with. Along with memories I would rather forget, it is too expensive to manage alone. I would rather have a smaller, cozier home. I am really looking forward to this move. I think it is just what I need. A change. A change for the good. My question is, what do I do with all "his" crap? I absoulely love to throw things away. But it seems when I do, not too long afterwards I am wondering where they are. I am a big believer on donating things. I would rather donate than sell. I feel that someone out there is worse off than I am, God forbid, and could use what I have and do not need. I have endless supplies of nails, screws, wires, and other "man" crap. How many scewdrivers does one need? I have decided to get rid of all his stuff. I know I will not be looking for a spare wire anytime down the road. Good riddence!

Too bad you've been left with cleaning out your ex's stuff. I'm with you - donate as much as you possibly can. The donation places will let you know what they can't take and then you can throw out or recycle. There's lots of places that would take tools and repair items.
I think the simplicity of buying the one nail or screw you need for a specific job outweighs having the clutter of a collection of stuff you might need.
And who wants to move a bunch of stuff you won't use.
