now i'm back in a large house with most of my stuff still packed in bins. i have more clothes than i will wear in my lifetime. more china than 6 restaurants. plus enough high-end cookware for the FOOD channel programs. i am not buying another damn item of clothing or any other damn thing. (now that i have my up-north woolies and boots.)
i have antiques and crystal and fancy crap, all still packed up.
i am starting to wonder what's going to happen to all this expensive stuff when i die since i can't take it with me--SHIT! it seemed important at the time i bought it all.
my big concern is antique china from Europe and the thousands of dollars i have in my village. my sons won't care about that kind of crap. and i'm not selling it. much is heirloom. *sigh* i am still stressing over that.
i already gave away a ton of very good clothes and books too, to a library.
I so feel you! I have unpacked boxes in my garage. Your sons will take wives someday, so keep the good shit for them. Divide up your boxes and put their names on the boxes they get.
Sell the rest and make some money. Go on a long trip.
You should set up your own ebay shop. You have a camera and a computer and know how to use both. The USPS will drop off boxes and will pick them up when they are ready to be shipped. Create your own economic upturn. Lady Cop Shop.
