I am thinking of heading to my mom's place in the spring to clear out stuff I didn't get around to cleaning out in September and greatly reducing the stuff I have, then bringing the remainder up here to store in a shed on my property. I don't want to have to do it after my mom dies-she is almost 80-so I am doing it now. I have a box full of old vinyl records, just over 3 trays of cassettes, and a bankers box stuffed with maybe 100 CD's. It's all been in storage since 2010 and to be honest I can't stand most of it anymore because of the memories. I have a few items that could be considered collectibles and will save those, but the bulk is from obscure pop, rap, and rock artists that nobody remembers, indluding their songs. Music goes for very little on Ebay, even big artists like Elvis, so my collection is pretty much worth $0. I am thinking of just junking the whole mess and selling my ministereo on Ebay. Also there is a bunch of books that will also go in the dumpster. And then there's the boxes of random junk that have already been whittled down over the years. I am thinking of just tossing most of it in the trash except for a few sentimental items and a few things that might be collectible like old restaurant matchbooks from mid 90s San Francisco. I am going to get up the nerve during winter to finally relieve my mom of my junk.
