The gift-giving and receiving season is upon us.
For my birthday this week Richard gave me thoughtful consumables and for our wedding anniversary (it's the same day as my birthday) we had a lovely dinner out at our favourite restaurant.
Gift giving and receiving is a fraught topic in the decluttering world. My view is that if someone is kind enough to give me a gift, I accept it with grace and gratitude.
