Give Yourself The Gift Of Freedom From Your Stuff!

Monday, December 29th, 2008

My personal property auction is done. Tomorrow people will stop by to pick up their purchases. All these things that have been in my possession for decades will soon leave my house with someone else. I hope they love these things and use them well. But whether they do or not is ultimately out of [...]

Count Your Blessings: They Are The Best Presents!

Thursday, December 25th, 2008

It’s Christmas Day. A time to remember the joy of new beginnings – the miracle of new life – the love that exists in the world – the spirit of giving. I am spending this day with family and friends. I am grateful for all the presents that 2008 brought to me – the new [...]

Still Breathing? Then It Is A Good Day!

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

On Friday, the estate sale people finished taking pictures and cataloging my stuff. Everything went up for sale online on Sunday. The virtual tour video people are filming my house today to add a more interesting visual aspect to my house listing. And my house will be for sale within the next few days as [...]

Sharing Stories Creates Connections!

Friday, December 19th, 2008

I’m a day late with this entry. This is the first time that has happened since I started this blog last April! My apologies to everyone who checked in Thursday morning to see my next entry. I was distracted by all the coming and going at my house – maintenance and repair people, real estate [...]

Seek Out Resources To Help You Accomplish Your Goals!

Monday, December 15th, 2008

Well, the ABF ReloCube (a movable storage unit) was packed and shipped to San Francisco last Friday. I stood on my porch and waved good-bye to my stuff. The truck driver was laughing and waving back. It was a funny moment. ABF will deliver the ReloCube to a storage facility in San Francisco where it [...]

Leading A Purpose-Full Life!

Thursday, December 11th, 2008

I finished my “Find Your Purpose” seminar earlier this week. It was an amazing process. And very helpful to me as I begin to look past all this sorting and packing to what comes next after I relocate. This move has been such a big focus for such a long time that I really hadn’t [...]

Plan Your Focus And Focus Your Plan!

Monday, December 8th, 2008

I arrived back in Cincinnati this morning – back to sorting and packing. Fortunately, the sorting is almost complete, so what is left is primarily the packing. And while it looks like a lot of stuff, I don’t think it will be hard to get it all packed up over the next few days. Wow! [...]

Sometimes You Just Have To Take A Break!

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

I’m back in San Francisco for a seminar that I signed up for months ago. I thought I would be living here full time at this point, but I still have some of my stuff in Cincinnati. The seminar is about healthy living and today is the first full day, so I am looking forward [...]

When Hurrying Doesn’t Help, Try Slowing Down!

Monday, December 1st, 2008

I had a melt down over the weekend. Having many things to do and not enough time to do them – over an extended period without any downtime leads to high levels of stress in my life. And when I get to that stressed out place, it doesn’t take much to send me over the [...]
