Boxes.


I'm packing today, & this is a perfect reminder. 

Although we don't really have much stuff, so it's probably a good thing. But I do really love that everything we own fits in a 700 square-foot apartment. 

Bed. Dresser. Couches. Ottoman. A few bookshelves. Hutch. 2 end tables. The end.

(Clutter really stresses me out, so this all works out quite well.  You just can't afford to have multiple junk drawers in tiny NYC spaces.)

But really - our life is pretty simple, even living in this gigantic, complex (& wonderful) city. 

And I like that.

I wish I was there to help. I remember having this same feeling when we lived in Ny. I miss that now that our stuff in strewn about and in storage.

NY teaches you vital skills about not holding on to junk!
