Too Much Stuff

Stuff, Junk, Cast-offs, Things, Bits and Pieces...
Have you considered how much stuff you have?  How much importance you place on collecting stuff?  Why do we need so much stuff?

I have never been a saver, keeper, hoarder and yet, I have lots of stuff!  While having lunch with Julie B., a great friend (she's also a great person), I realized some of the stuff was just to fill a space in a room.  But since we are moving from 2100 sq.ft to 390 sq. ft. I don't have as many spaces to fill.

Speaking of places to fill, the next time you think you need that mixing bowl, pretty vase, pair of jeans, decorative pillow, or piece of furniture, consider this: do you really need it or are you trying to fill a space.  Sometimes that space is not physical but emotional.  Alright, I'm not "Jack Handy" and this is not meant to be "deep thoughts".

We've spent 3 weeks sorting and tossing and selling- then we did it again.  I'm on my fourth sort thru stuff I think "I need" but the bus is getting full so I have to decide how important that stuff is to me.  Does it go or does it stay...or, is it so special I lean on my son and daughter-in-law (best son and d-i-l ever!) and put something else in their attic?  I guess it is easier said than done.

Happy Adventures!  BA

P.S. If you know anyone that needs china, crystal glasses, crystal vases, big comfy chair or you know, STUFF.  Let me know :D
