I can relate to the sentimental attachment to things. I've left behind or gotten rid of several things because there was some memory or other attached to it. I left behind gifts exh got me and all his old letters and cards to me. I found some when I moved to my new house and gave those to the exh when we exchanged our D7. I don't know what he did with the stuff and I don't really care. I just know it is not here reminding me of the way things were.
