I think the Covid lock-down has effected different people differently. But I wonder if many of us have switched off the "more stuff" phase of our lives. For Ed and I, it did not take the Covid because we downsized to New York and are forced to live in a lot less space.

In LA we had 2 four bedroom houses (Hollywood and Palm Springs) and they were both full of crap. When we moved to New York we downsized, and have been pretty much reducing ever since. We buy new things (shoes, TVs, etc), but we always now get rid of something else when we buy something new. We aren't good people (I mean we are, but not because of this), but we just don't have the space.
So for others, are you buying less stuff. Is this a product of getting older or a product of lockdowns?
I am and for me it's probably getting older. I need less stuff AND I hate to shop.
ReplyDeleteWe are, mainly because we’re getting older and trying to reduce the clutter so our wonderful children won’t have to !
