I wish we could move and take NOTHING with us but I'm sure we'll still have a truckload of stuff. I hope to get rid of most of our furniture though. It'll be tough not bringing all my tools with me but I know I probably won't need half the stuff I have. I mean I have 7 ladders for goodness sakes..
It's funny you say that. When my husband's cousin and his wife moved down they took absolutely NOTHING, barely even any clothes, but they rented a U-haul just to take all of his tools. They made sure they got the biggest garage they could get at the time because he wasn't going to sacrifice his man cave time just because they were moving to TV. I used to tease him that when his father lived with them he should have gotten a recliner for the garage for his dad to sit in and they could pretend they were Sanford and Son.

My husband is having the same issue about tools and stuff like that because he enjoys doing so much himself. I told him maybe that's a good reason why we're doing the split thing for awhile. It will give him time to decide what he really needs and what he doesn't. Me, I could go with the clothes on my back and just start over. Maybe some family pictures but that's about it - the irreplaceable stuff.
