Right now, I’m getting ready for a big move across the country. Preparing for this move, has been taking so much of my time. Trying to focus on anything else has been a no go. On top of that, moving during the pandemic has come with many headaches. Yet, some good things have come out of this move. I’m starting to realize that I don’t need so much stuff.
I have been looking at my things and realizing, why did I ever buy so much stuff? Most of it just fill up my closet and storage space. Why was I burdening myself with all of this junk? I’m starting to see why people live in tiny homes to experience the minimalist lifestyle. Even if I find tiny homes to bother me. Trust me, I could write a whole blog about why I’m not a fan of the tiny house movement.
To make the move a little easier, I have been donating a lot of my things. I hope people get better use out of it than I did.
It has been a busy couple of weeks which have taught me how to purge a lot of my things. I now realize that I can live a comfortable lifestyle without my things. Let’s hope I can stick to this new lifestyle.
I did donate my things to Goodwill. Here is a link to their site.

Best to you on your move, Christopher!
Thank you very much! I’m really looking forward to the move.
Hi there I am so happy I found your web site, I really found you by accident, while I was searching on Digg for something else, Anyways I am here now and would just like to say thanks a lot for a fantastic post and a all round enjoyable blog (I also love the theme/design), I don抰 have time to read it all at the minute but I have book-marked it and also included your RSS feeds, so when I have time I will be back to read much more, Please do keep up the excellent job.
One thing I’d like to say is always that before buying more computer memory, take a look at the machine within which it can be installed. If the machine can be running Windows XP, for instance, a memory ceiling is 3.25GB. Adding a lot more than this would simply constitute a waste. Make sure one’s mother board can handle the upgrade volume, as well. Interesting blog post.
