Come hell or high water, we will be begin moving next week. Husband tiled the bathroom floor with the help of our grandson. Wednesday, we will install the all important bathroom fixtures and the electrician has all the wiring done and will be hooking us to live electricity today.
Since the existing house is very, very small, we are putting the majority of our possessions in storage. I've never been big on the minimalist's movement, but for a few months (until we build on), we will be living with only the necessities. My problem is identifying what we really need versus what I feel we might need. For instance, do I need to take all my pots and pans? Should I include the cast iron? And since I hate putting my books in storage, should I stack those books in the dining room? I'm not so sure about that. Do we need our king size bed or can we sleep on the sofa and a cot? Today I will research the true meaning of minimalism and try and decide just what I need versus what I want.
Retired and trying to figure it all out. What the hell is next?
