Today I will start sorting out clothes to give away. I guess that whatever I do, it will be better than nothing.

We recently downsized to a much smaller home and had to get rid of much of our furniture. We had trouble trying to sell an oak dresser and eventually offered it for free to any of the extended family who might like it.

We had to switch to...

I’ve felt a bit down because we’ve had to leave our acreage and move to a much smaller house on a tiny block. But time after time, there are signs that we’ve done the right thing in selling up and downsizing.

I feel the need to come home and get rid of things every time I get home from one particular friend's house. I don't know why that is the case, but it is.
I didn't realize how many books I was still keeping that I didn't need to...

When I retired, I downsized my clothing wardrobe drastically. I knew I wouldn’t need business clothes ever again. But I did save a few things in order to hedge my bet just a little. Good thing I did. I’m going to be speaking to...
