When we bought this house some 18 years ago I put my old 1967 Chrysler Newport convertible in the garage, and closed the door.. This was the car I drove in HS. I had intended to do a complete rehab on the sled some day. Well when I bought the 911, the 67 had to go, and I found a lot (I mean a lot) of stuff that I didn't have the nerve to throw away, that had piled up on and around the car over the next 15 years. When the car was pulled out into the light of day, and waited for the rollback to come and take her to her new home I started going through the "stuff" that I just couldn't give up. I kept one item out of 4 pickup loads that went away. I was shocked. The rest of my house is much the same way, we have a couple of rooms that we don't use for anything more than storage, WTF. I want a small house with a big garage somewhere in the mountains. I have been trying to figure a way to simplify my life for a couple of years now. The kids are almost gone and I think I will make the break from the clutter. Ya'll are right about getting away, I used to go camping (primitive) several times a year, and it is amazing how refreshed I would feel after getting back to "civilization".
I too think I need to look around and make a break from the rat race myself.
