Acquiring stuff vs downsizing

It's interesting. After 6+ months of downsizing, I am loathe to fill up our house with "stuff." I can't even imagine where I am going to put the things that are in storage in California; (answer: the third bedroom which was converted from a one car garage.)

But it is really impressive how much "stuff" you can do without. We were able to obtain a couch set in good condition for free this weekend; a TV stand, dresser, washer dryer set, record player, coffee and end table for $190. 

And with that, the house is pretty much full. A pot to boil spaghetti so I don't have to make it in the pressure cooker, maybe another chest of drawers and we are done.

Egads. Tiny House mentality is really freeing. I hope we can keep it up, and downsize even more once the "stuff" gets here.
