Hi all, and thanks for the warm welcome. I appreciate all of your thoughts, suggestions, etc.

I think my "plan" is to work on one area per week.    Last week I cleaned up and reorganized the pantry, pitched some stuff, and set up brand new recycling bins for the plastics, cans, glass, etc. I deliberately made the bins on the smallish side, so that I can move stuff out faster.

There's a person in our neighborhood, who periodically puts something on the curb in front of the house with a "free" sign. It's always gone by the time I go by on my return home.

I found your # 9 interesting, kat. It's been my experience that sometimes, I'll get rid of something and then miss it or think I "need" it the following week . Then I never need it again.

I sometimes think about how little I can get by with, when I'm traveling. If I can apply that to daily leaving, I realize I don't need much of what I've acquired. My biggest obstacle is procrastination.

I admire alla y'all's ebay abilitiesl
