Second moving sale down. Yeah!!!!! We've managed to get rid of tons of stuff, thanks to the two moving sales, and advertising on our neighborhood site and Craigslist. Whew! We've got a ways left to go, so we'll continue to use Craigslist, and then we'll donate or keep (or toss) the rest.
This has been an amazing journey that has challenged me in so many ways. Just to lay hands on EVERY last thing in our possession. And then to make decisions about all of it. Things that I've had since college, or earlier. Do I keep the silver duckie that my godfather gave me for baptism? Turns out yes, yes I do. How about the armoire I got for my room senior year in college? Nope, that one's out (buyer dependent). It really brought up important ideas that I haven't really worked on in such a long time. How much do I really need? How do I keep things neat and tidy and controlled? Do I really need very much? And if I don't need very much, what do I need? Such a great exercise, but I don't think I want to do this too very often.
