...or an "Everything Must Go" Challenge I'm moving out soon (or so I've planned). I'll either need to throw a lot of stuff away or take it with me. I hate heavy bags, and I already have a lot of stuff to move. So for some reason I really enjoy this time - Use It or Lose It. Seeing as the amount of stuff around me decreases, an minimalism and order increases (control freak much?). I've had a stock of cereals big enough to feed a small army or resolve a humanitarian crisis in Africa. I don't regret being stocked up - it's a hedge against inflation (or a sudden crisis, like pandemic or whatever). I'd better eat what I have in the fridge and on the shelf. Coming up with ideas what to cook from what I have is challenging, but interesting. I'd love to buy some groceries - but I intentionally delay it for several other reasons. I'm leaving on the weekend - it doesn't make sense for fresh products to become... not fresh. Saving money - or at least delaying spending; best case - I'll shop after the move. Stops overspending - I'm not perfect; there's stuff I would rather not consume; or buy in less quantities (as needed), to avoid wasting food. Moving made me clean my house - this made me realize how much trash I have just laying around; And other stuff I don't even use (mostly clothes). It's not the first time, but every time it makes me think. Well, here's for better saving, spending, utilizing, minima...lizing :)
