(or in the South, Re-do)

I downsized from two homes to one last year, and learned a lot. First, don’t upsize and you won’t have to downsize.  Nothing makes you lament that trail of past paid American Express bills for the must-have lamp or the new color sofa or the kickiest of knickknacks more than the fact that you are now piling much of all that "stuff"  in the stack marked Yard Sale.  Read the great book "Seven" by Jan Hatmaker for a new view of such things; better yet, give it to a 20- or 30-something to read!
