Focusing on Pictures

In 2019, my daughter, along with her half-sister, inherited 11 acres to clean up stuff left behind after 40 years of inhabitancy by her great-uncle and her father. We spent at least one day a week for over seven months gathering trash and recyclables of metal, tires and dead vehicles to be hauled away. I don’t want to do the same to her at my passing, so I’m very aware and conscious of decluttering on an ongoing basis.

And now it’s time to focus on pictures…

As I posted before, I designate different days of the week for a variety of projects. Wednesday is picture-sorting-day. For one hour once a week, I spend time going through my photos on my laptop and phone. I label them and delete duplicates, out-of-focus and fuzzy images.

Do you have too many pictures from accidentally hitting the burst button on your camera? How about blurry pictures? What about mystery people and mystery locations?

What steps are you taking to leave the least amount of ‘stuff’ for the family and friends left behind when you move into a care facility or succumb to the final sleep?
