We are downsizing, dramatically. This means clearing out furniture, toys, books, knicknacks, clothes…you name it, we probably need less of it. Downsizing means we need less house.
I am trying my best to maintain a great attitude during this transitional time in our family life. But quite frankly, it’s frightening. Right now, we don’t know where we’ll live. We’ve found homes for a lot of our furniture, but more of it is going to have to go. I refuse to use a storage unit. I’m gifting some of my favorite things to some of my favorite people.
So I’m trying to have a zen attitude about all this uncertainty. Stuff is just stuff. At the end of the day, my husband, children, and I will all still be together. I’m finally learning to realize what is important in this life, even if it’s through this hard lesson.
For once in my life, I’m having a little faith that everything will turn out okay.
