Sort of.
I mean, I marvel at people who are able to do so but then again, I think it is a function that as we age, we just build up more things. As I said in my diary (a volume or two back), it's like the difference in books and notes between the arriving freshman and the graduating senior (if one keeps their books, that is).
BUT being in the process of moving and having so much stuff, I do marvel, even envy.
There's not much more I can readily dump that hasn't already been done, isn't on the list yet, in the time left. But once in the new place, then it is time to take a look, figure out how to "re-program" and try to do it smaller, lesser.
Though to do it smaller, lesser may mean just storing the bulky stuff off site with something of a drop in the bucket.
But now that I actually have to move all this stuff......I do marvel.
