Two years ago, I started my de-cluttering journey. It was huge when one car could park inside. Eventually both our cars fit. There were some backslides along the way. I look at this mess, and it seems like it was a lifetime ago.

Wow! It must be really gratifying to see such clear, objective evidence of all of your hard work. And I imagine Raoul’s happy smiling face each time he gets to DRIVE his car into his garage! Kudos to you!

Hi Liz,
Good luck with clearing things out your way. It’s a tricky process, especially when you are in the vintage selling biz. The choice items you had at the Barn House sale were certainly worth any storage space you gave them!
