In other words, all the leftover junk, crap and personal affects of WH.

I must be moving on. I've begun to start clearing all of WH stuff out of our closet. He left a ton of junk when he chose to move to his apartment. I guess it's so much easier to make a clean break if you don't take hardly any of the past with you. He's had oh, 9 months to get anything he wanted. There's been time, opportunity and access. The seasons have changed.

I want my closet back. I'm somewhat nicely putting his crap into bags. Some of it, like his nice but unworn suit and good sweaters, I'm setting aside for my boys. Anything that's valuable I'm keeping but that still leaves a mound of stuff.

What do you think:

A: Contact him and tell him to come get his stuff. This isn't happening soon because I'm not breaking Plan B for mere crap.

B: Dump it all in front of the door of his apartment.

C: A variation of above, stack it on top of his car in his work parking lot. It will probably bury the vehicle.

D: Donate it and take the tax deduction

E: Hold a "man's only" garage sale

F: Big, big bonfire

G: Warn WH options D,E or F is being planned and he needs to take it all away.

So many options. Anybody got any ideas or something more creative?

Me: BS
XCH: Clueless
2-DS: Bigger than me
1-DD: Now also bigger than me!

5/6: Personally served CH with divorce papers
6/6: CH F? wants to time to see if M can be saved
7/6: FCH reenters our lives to work on marriage but secretly signs papers to start divorce...what's that about?

I asked my husband to take the rest of his JUNK for a year and a half. He was too "busy".

One day I got tired of walking around it and loaded it all up and took it to his place and loaded it in his truck. He was completely furious, but I felt GREAT.
