It's Memorial Day weekend and fortunately it's raining because what a bummer it would be to be inside packing all day. Getting your life into neat little categories makes the most sense bring, store, sell, donate. So simple right? Hardly...
The "bring" part is the hardest...one of us has an overpacking tendency and since this isn't an average camping trip it's doubly challenging.  How to make where you land a home with enough comfort is the goal but short of bringing the couch, how does one accomplish this? Guess we will figure that out as we go.
The "store" is fairly straight forward. We have a 5x5 unit rented that comes with a moving truck. It's located near family, cheap ($40 a month), and just the right amount of space as long as you are good at Tetris. The challenge here is to keep handy the items we may possibly need but that's easier said then done.
Sell: thanks to craigslist and flea markets we have been trying to get rid of some of the bulkier, non sentimental things. We've actually been working on trying to barter too...more on bartering later.
Donate...the best opportunity to live light is to purge purge purge all the crap that collects in life.  Life always seems easier (read as simpler) when you clear the clutter so throw that nonsense out (well you know donate).
