We are on a three year plan to get rid of almost everything before we move down there for good.
I'm bringing my tools, my Mac, some pictures, and my wife.......not listed in order of importance..... ;D
Our Florida home is already furnished, so I do not want to bring much.
The saying, "How do you eat an elephant?...One bite at a time" fits here. I'm selling things on ebay, on Craigslist, and having a yearly garage sale as we pare down. I already have people begging for my snowblower, etc. (big 13 hp. Ariens Professional model.....overpowered is generally adequate

)
This paring down will help sell the house, and be quite liberating. My 3 boys will take stuff. They used to tease me about having over a dozen different power drills....now they realize they all will get some, it seems to be ok.....
One shelf a day, one drawer a day......we'll get there. We've always been organized, so it isn't bad, but we have a big house, going from almost a 4000 sq ft home to one less then 1/2 that size will take commitment. They call them possessions, not because we own them, but perhaps because they own us........
1035 days to go !
