Jean tends to get lost inside the lay-z-boy. So, a couple years ago we found a more size-challenged version of a recliner chair. It goes just perfect with a winter night, hot chocolate, a good book and a fire in the fireplace!
In the first few years of married life we made a gradual transition from salvation army chairs and orange crate end tables to furniture from actual furniture stores. We moved from temporary dorm rooms to various apartments and rental duplexes to our first house. At what point in life does this trajectory of moving to bigger and better things start moving in the other direction? When do we stop acquiring new end tables, couches and lamps and instead, start downsizing and letting go?
Here's an interesting youtube video about "stuff." At the very least it speaks to the need for being more intentional about our acquisitions. What kind of thoughts do you have when you're looking at new stuff?
