No, Pat, you are not the only one with this problem. I am also in the process of downsizing. (My too-large house goes on the market the first week of May.) I've been sorting and discarding since last summer. My attic was a nightmare and included *every* issue of LLL News. (The first book I edited, Learning a Loving Way of Life--now available for one cent on Amazon--was a compilation of its best stories.) And my collection of Leavens was gargantuan. I've decided to spare my three sons from dealing with my mess later, so I went on the LLL Leaders Facebook page and asked if anyone wanted my LLL publications collection. A Leader from PA offered to take them and it cost me $50 to mail them to her the cheapest possible way. I can't help but wonder if she regretted her moment of weakness when she tried to lift that box and bring it into her house. Still lots of sorting and discarding to do. Wish me luck!
