!!!! I'm Moving !!!!

Well, after 28 years of being in this house (e.g.- my studio...), I have decided to move and have bought a brand new house!  I can not WAIT to move in!  (Of course I have to sell my old one first.)  Just moving across town, but getting off this mountain and into town will be such a sigh of relief, and the room for the new Studio is amazing!
The thought of packing up 28 years worth of stuff is overwhelming however....
 
Starting all over again at age 59.  LOL

Cheers!

Best of luck to you and congrats on the new house!
 
28 years worth of stuff... Man, I can't even imagine! I don't remember staying in the same spot for more than 4 years, most places I didn't last 2 years. Last we moved by plane - that gives you an idea.

A quick tally for me sets me at around 28 in my 61 years.
 
Butt....... I have more plugins than that, which is nice.

when i moved two years ago, i took the time to get rid of a HUGE amount of stuff.
 
 
i gave away furniture, clothes, kitchen equipment, tools, just  a ton of stuff..
 
and if you do it proper, you can write it all off on next years' taxes.
 
my motto is, if i haven't used it in the last 12 months, it's gone.
 
a lot went away.
 
good luck paring stuff down, i say do it with abandon and extreme prejudice!

Re: !!!! I'm Moving !!!! 2014/04/23 15:22:03 (permalink)
Man, I hear that!!!
 
My wife and I started looking for some land recently. We want something back off the beaten path, about 10 to 40 acres out in the woods. The plan is to get the land, and work on it on weekends and when we get closer to retirement, sell the stuff we have here and build our retirement house on the land and raise chickens, goats, brew beer and whatever other mischievous things  I can find to do in the woods....  (grin...wink)
 
I had the same thought.... all this crap that would to be packed up and hauled to the new location...... the thought of all that work makes me cringe.
 
But the thought of staying here isn't very appealing either.....

I bought our current house 4 years ago. Both kids were getting ready to leave the nest. I rented a 30 yard dumpster and the wife and I started going through 20 years of stuff. She had kept every ratty old stuffed toy and every scrap of paper they had ever slobbered or raked a crayon across from the day they were born. I highly recommend this method of weeding out the crap before the move.

I'm in the process of doing that at my business.  We've got all manner of arcana and junk...like one whole wall filled with old client projects on DAT tape, computers and printers dating back to the mid nineties, etc...
 
We've also decided to have a musicians and home studio "yard sale" later this spring.  Probably two thirds of the stuff in the building is disposable.  Including me, of course.

Thanks guys!  I appreciate the comments.  Definitely plan to pare down!
 
I recall having 6 homes in my first 8 years out of college... then in this place for 28.  Time to go!

Congrats...
 
Must admit i have been idly browsing houses..simply to have more room for music & the studio.. I have commandeered pretty much the entire downstairs atm. The dining room is a rehearsal/jam room, the family room has 2 practice amps in it and nevermind the study/io
 
As i browse houses it seems that a finished, preferably walkout basement, is #1 on the list..lol

You know, as a kid and growing up, I had every potential to become a hoarder. Then I moved out of my parents house to the big city - but my room mate and I only had a small van to carry both of our belongings, so I had to leave most of my stuff behind. And in spite of my apprehensions, it became a freeing, life-defining moment.
 
Since then, I've moved by bus (Greyhound type), by car, and, more recently, by plane as I mentioned.
 
I've located a pic of that last move - that's all we took with us (including two cats in their carriers):

I too have turned into a hoarder of sorts..... nothing that would qualify me for a spot on one of the reality shows, but I have more useless things that I have saved through the years.  I still have an old DOS computer. Anybody remember the old 8088's?  Stored away in the attic. Lots of papers and other stuff......
 
My wife calls the office/studio my junk room.....
 
I have things in here I haven't used or touched in years. But.... I have found out that the minute I decide it's no longer needed, and throw it out, the likelihood that I will need it tomorrow increases exponentially, and sure enough....I will need it,  and then, since I just threw it away, I will have to go to the store and spend money to buy it again.  Truth!!

I'm hoping to move closer to where I work in the next 4 years.  Boy, do I dread the thought of going through everything we have hoarded through the years! We have been in this house for almost 20 years as well.

They say that moving can be as stressful as, "a death in the family," because you are examining, and packing up your past.
