Battling possessions

I am in a war with stuff. I like stuff. I like furniture. I especially like having a house with furniture. However, I have this goal that I want to be unburdened. Since we lived in a huge monstrosity of a house which we totally filled up- somewhere around 3500 square feet + enormous garage, and now live in a normal 1900 square foot house with 2 car garage, it is a constant source of stress. Add to that my Mother's belongings that I brought home. So I spent a good part of last weekend rearranging furniture and boxing up some things, which I took to the Goodwill store. And I am trying to get rid of some larger items, and got my father's bookshelf that he made in college, and got a TV for the bedroom but need to get cable to it and now have books to go through.... and on and on. So I deal with it a little at a time, take time out to write and crochet and other stuff, and look forward to a day when I am unburdened.
