We live in a single family home, but we are starting to look at smaller homes with less outside maintenance.

Re: House, apartment, condo, or?????

@shaggygirl...Sorry for your loss...we have a fairly large home in a subdivision. We have tried to sell thehouse many times and cannot sell, unless we want to give it away.  I have slowly cleaned out drawers, closets, etc. I am finally done, it took several years and several garage sales and selling to consigment shops and Goodwill.    I still have a house full of things but I love all that I have kept, and many pieces are family pieces that  I will pass down. I will probably end up dying in this house which makes me sad but probably the reality.  My family will not have to go thru a lot of excess stuff, I have already done that job.

 

If you want to down size, just take a room at a time so it is not so overwhelming.  This is something that I love doing and have recently helped my neighbor get in the groove of cleaning out.  She will be moving in a couple of years and has done a good job of weeding out, but it does take time.
