Moving Stuff

When we decided to move out of our 1700 square foot house, I was completely exasperated with the amount of work it takes to move stuff, stuff and more stuff.  

Not only the amount of work exasperated me: 

the stuff seemed to multiply every time I packed a box! 

There was always more, and more, and more until I was loading things into the "Give Away" boxes simply because I hadn't even seen half the stuff in the last 5 years!

To this day, I couldn't tell you even a third of what we got rid of without some serious mental organizing and meditating.

This was all stuffI still hadn't packed so I moved it out of my kitchen to sift through:

This was all stuff I THOUGHT I was going to be moving.....

This is probably TRIPLE what I actually have in my tiny house right now!

This is what I have to move this time around (minus the loft area):

                


I could move my whole kitchen in 2 trips ... in my station wagon!  

Technically, we could just hook up our house to a truck AS IS without moving anything out of it.  The weight might be an issue though, so we're trying to get as much moved out of the tiny house as we can before we move it.

I am SO VERY GLAD I got rid of all the stuff that I did.  

I have no intention of going back to the "Stuff Life". I like the challenge of living minimally, I enjoy the freedom it brings and I LOVE how easy it is to move!!!
