Oh, boy... what have you reminded me of?
Hey, move your shit so I can put my stuff down.
It's amazing the amount of shit that one can accumulate over the years. My ex (and my kid) live in our 3000sqft house in the country - there's also a garage and 1500 sqft shop/storage building, all overflowing with crap. We split 6 years ago, I had literally the clothes on my back. I can barely fill my 900 sqft apartment to the point where it could almost be described as spartan. My place feels open and airy compared to a space more than three times larger.
It literally took half an afternoon to pack up and move literally everything I own when I moved earlier this month.
Pretty sure I'm happier this way. There's something to be said for not being ruled by our stuff.
