Garage Sale Fever - of sorts

I'm desperate to feel weightless when I make this move back out West. When I look around at everything I own I know that this is going to be difficult.

I've never wanted to consider myself a materialistic person, but I think I might be. I feel safe with a few possessions surrounding me.

Recently the boyfriend of a friend lost everything in a fire. Thankfully he safely escaped with the clothes on his back.

This happened a few weeks ago, but has been on my mind quite a bit since.

I've begun my process of material exfoliation by loading the big furniture onto online classified websites : craigslist & kijiji.

I've forced myself to reflect on what's important out of all the crap that I seem to have acquired over the past 4 years.

If Jessica reads this ... there are a few things I would like to donate to the A.D fund if he would like.

We're doing this too... Jon and I (much to Zach's dismay) pulled a ton of stuff up out of the storage locker and much of it is still in the living room.

Where are you living when you get back out west?
