As we've slowly gone through a few things and started packing up select items in our apartment/classroom, I realized how we are big pack rats... or should we say materialistic?! UG! I feel like such a typical American! It will be nice to simplify our lives by packing up our next two years into four suitcases and maybe a box or two to ship later.
Yesterday I went through five office depot sized boxes of Spanish files and condensed it down to two. It felt so good to be able to recycle so many things that I know I won't/don't need. I probably don't even need half of the things I kept anyway since I don't intend to teach elementary again... but I'm reluctant to give those files up and sell/give away those elementary resources JUST IN CASE.
Anyways, simplicity is amazing.
