So...we have a lot less stuff than when we left Houston, but we are finding that we have more stuff than we realized. Moving can be cleansing...for the closet/storage. A garage sale is in the near future. Conversely while we de-clutter/purge we are purchasing items to replace what no longer works, fits in or we no longer have but need.
Organizing your own house (versus a rental) is a two-sided coin; on one side you finally get to arrange/organize things the way you want, how you want and where you want making your house your home. On the other side of the coin you have to arrange/organize things, you can't have the attitude that you are only going to be there a short while so you throw your stuff into a box and leave it in the attic/garage/basement. The blessing and the curse.
The "to-do" list seems never ending but the process is continuing and we are slowly getting things in order which does provide a sense of satisfaction and is starting to make our house feel more like a home.
