#127 - For months they’d been thinking, “We have to get rid of all this stuff.” Meaning the stuff that gathers and fills a home over the years. “We can’t leave it to the kids to deal with.”
That's what I call downsizing. What a thrilling conclusion to the story, James. When we retired, sixteen years ago, we got rid of a lot of stuff. Now we have to do some more downsizing. Where to begin? Garage? Closets? Kitchen? Office? One of these days...
Wow! That IS downsizing. A thrilling account, Ron We Californians try to be so well prepared. We are fooling ourselves. At east we need to pack a box or two of the things we absolutely cannot lose - the irreplaceable, and try to keep them mobile. Excellent tale, Ron
Yes, we think "it" won't happen to us. I live above a flood likelihood, it is fire from earthquake that I concerns me, houses too close together. Much thanks, Sharron!

Thank you, K.C. It is hard to start. I had to just make up my mind that I wanted to do it.

Great story. The things that mean so much to us can become very non-essential when our lives are at stake.
Thank you very much. I've been tossing old stuff out left and right. I feel better now.
My wife and I are facing that conundrum We know that most of the stuff that means a lot to us means little to our kids.
