Broken Stuff

Today is a day to evaluate anything broken.  Sometimes I hold onto things like broken staplers, pieces of a dropped figurine, or a torn piece of clothing for months…maybe years, intending to fix the item.

I like the simplicity of decluttering coming down to decision making.  With broken pieces, ask,
"What would it cost to just replace it?"
"Can I schedule in a time this week to repair it?"
"Is the repair something I can do myself, or should I call a friend?"
"If I haven't needed it in 8 months, should I really keep it?"

Make a decision when you come across such pieces.
