The clutter has to go!!!

Ok, time to bare my soul and be ruthless. I have a house full of clutter and it HAS TO GO!!!!!!
I waver between the resolute, sensible declutterer.....................I've not used this, need it, have no idea what it is......so it is going; to the sentimental, dreamy, it might come in useful one day..........what if I had to go an buy it........so let's keep it!!!!!
Decorating the bedroom has caused me to re-evaluate my clothing! Prime example is tights!!! I hate tights, detest them, won't wear them out of choice. I am a trousers girl and on the odd times that is might wear a skirt / dress, tights are not required. However, when I worked at Cliveden, they were a touch old fashioned (and had obviously never heard of sex discrimination laws), and my uniform involved a skirt, with which I was required to wear tights.
Anyway, heaving the furniture around the bedroom to decorate, I discover that I have a whole drawer just full of tights that I used to wear at Cliveden. I left Cliveden over six years ago, and those tights were washed and then put away in that drawer, where they have sat ever since. They are gone now.............what was the point in keeping them. I kept a couple of pairs on the very slim off chance that I may require a pair in the future and the rest went in the bin!!!
I have also done the same with my t-shirts. T-shirts long worn out, but kept for sentimental reasons (so and so brought that for me from.........), who have not seen the light of day for years, have gone.
Now, just to tackle the rest of the house!
