A few months ago, I offered our leather lounge suite to Steve and Bex. But then I changed my mind.
3 days ago we put an offer in on a much, much smaller home, and realised the leather lounge suite would be too big for the lounge there.
So, we again offered it to Steve and Bex, and they are more than happy to take it.
So today it is going over to their home. And we shall be keeping the Cream La Z Boy suite.
The house is going to look a bit empty !
But that's all good, because it means we will have that much less big furniture to move in 3 months time.
Downsizing is extremely freeing I must say. It's like a MASSIVE declutter.
I really am loving it.
There will be more decluttering going on once we have moved, and can bring back from storage all we have there too.
ABOVE: I know I posted this back in December, but it's so appropriate for us now, and worth posting again.
I am sure I will 'WANT' more stuff once we move, and have sorted everything out. Like a new oven, range hood, lights etc. But all that can wait for now.
Now all I want is for time to fly, and May to get here quick. I'm not too good when it comes to being patient.
And back to now... better get up and make a start on our day.
ABOVE: And there it goes, the first load over to the kids. There's probably two to go.
Hi, does your new home have 2 or 3 bedrooms? Peta
ReplyDeleteIt only has two bedrooms! When we look back over the past 5 years, we have only ever used two bedrooms! One for us and one for visitors. That is why a downsize isn't going to be a problem when it comes to bedrooms. AND it means NO ONE can move home again! BIG POSITIVE THERE.
DeleteHa ha...good idea!!! Peta
DeleteHaha had to have a wee giggle at the 'no one can move home again' 😄 we are good Mum and Dad, we are all goods....and hey maybe you can move in with us one day 😄 🥰....yeah I can hear ya both lol
DeleteLove ya
#Lacy💙💜
I've been thinking about ìt too. My next home will be a pensioners flat hopefully with no steps although the landlord is making noises about building a ramp now?? Where would I start lol.. have a.nice relaxing day. Kj
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to move stuff out when you have the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteWow really but the time to move on it should be a breeze.
ReplyDeleteSo hot here yesterday another glorious day.
Curious, will your dining room table & chairs fit in your new home? You all are doing a wonderful job in preparing for your move. May will be here before you know it. Ky Girl
ReplyDeleteYes they will fit, just shrunk down a little.
DeleteGreat! Ky Girl
DeleteSteve, Bex and the children will love their "new" couch....Peta
ReplyDeleteIve down sized many times with so many shifts and still have way to much. Decided for lent im going to remove 40 items either biff to tip or take to op shop...wonder if I will even see a difference.
ReplyDeleteIt's 31degrees here so plonked in the longe chair by the air conditioning doing naught.
Your place is going to seem so empty for a while. Who knows, maybe minimalism will grow on you!
ReplyDeleteDo you ever wonder why you keep buying stuff and moving stuff around. You never seem satisfied. Maybe if you lived with less you will be happier.
ReplyDeleteBusy busy!! I bet it does feel nice getting everything cleaned out. I used to say if I ever moved I'd just get rid of most stuff since everything we have is so old!
