Either it's useful at least part of the year, or I know it will be useful sometime in the future -- hard to know what to take and what to plan on replacing.<br /><br />KathleenFreeholderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03206718945451441382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4322973801467331651.post-88675844834138468552011-09-26T11:17:53.837-05:002011-09-26T11:17:53.837-05:00I have a rule when moving.. if you haven't ope...I have a rule when moving.. if you haven't opened the box for 2 moves... you don't need it.. On the other hand, I have stuff that I wouldn't unpack because I somehow knew I wouldn't be there too long (i.e. my grandmothers crystal). <br /><br />When I moved from NYC to AZ the cost was .55 per lb. that motivated me to not take alot of things. Funny.. I don't seem to miss any of it. <br /><br />I can't seem to get rid of clothes though. I a closet worth of stuff I should just donate... don't know why that is so hard.<br /><br />Best of luck with your journey and please keep us informed!

Now, not so much!<br /><br />The purge has been happening here as well, though not with the beloved books (we like the crack of the spine, the smell of the page and the feel of the paper).

As I prepare for the coming reality and my off-grid existence I find way too much "stuff"...<br /><br />Perhaps I can donate or sell some of it, yard sales, ebay etc. but it' got to go...
