Moving is a nice time to make peace with one chapter of your life ending and a new one beginning. some of the stuff that Just Existed in your old place doesn’t necessarily have to come with you to the next place… you don’t have to throw things out if that’s scary, you can also donate them, give things to friends, or leave stuff in the hall!

This is incredibly useful (and rather poetic) I for sure feel like it's a fresh start, and have started to gather things I'm donating!! tysm ♡

Consider the things that take up space in your home. do you use them? do you need them? do they spark joy? would you move with it? if the answer‘s in the negative, consider getting rid of it.
it’s just stuff…

The urgency makes my brain shut off sentimentality and emotionality. I got rid of so many cute/nice things that I honestly don’t think about anymore. I have one vintage strawberry mug i LOVE, why have another that I only like a lot?
Started out with donations I had planned and sorted but when it came down to the wire, we ended up putting everything on the porch for free and it was incredible how quickly everything was taken and rehomed. Very nice to have people get excited about getting a desk, microwave, whatever and the genuine gratitude. That strawberry mug? Our new neighbors snapped it up and said ”are you SURE you don’t want this?!? it’s so cute!!” Yep, that’s yours now, enjoy it!!!
still need to do this with clothes as that’s my fatal flaw but works with objects.

Gazpacho only in the late summer, persimmons only in the winter, etc. just because we can import anything from anywhere anytime doesn’t mean we should. Nothing is special if you can have it whenever you want it.

So much so that you stare at it like gollum and fantasize about passing it down to your unborn children. I got a new bracelet at the antique store
