On disposing of pieces of paper

While it is true that it is possible to completely sort through, tidy, and remove junk from a house if you simply manage to remove more from it than you bring in, this only works if you do it more than 1 day out of 365.

Also if you actually read the books you've had for 10 years unread and that you have identified as "read the damn thing and move it on".

Also if you accept that you do not need to keep copies of random HPFGU theories for posterity. However amusing the Snape theories were.

We've reached the stage of finally getting rid of baby things, but that means we've acquired an awful lot of toddler things, and now we're moving into childhood things as well, not instead of.

It's about to get worse again because Daughter is getting Lego for her 5th birthday, but Son (2 and a half) is nowhere near ready to part with Duplo yet. It seemed unfair to make her wait until he was ready for Lego, especially as she now goes to bed an hour later than him which is an ideal time to get out the Lego without his 'help'.
