decluttering

I'm gong to take this advice on decluttering from wen (IMO, the fourth item on this list is particularly pertinent):
a. Pick up an item.
b. Do you know what the hell it is? If not, toss it.
c. Does it smell bad? If so, toss it.
d. Ask yourself "Would I rather take care of this item or blog?" If the answer is blog, toss it.
NOTE: Do not toss your husband, wife, children, all the food in your fridge, your pets or your neighbors' pets.
