My thoughts right now have to do with an event that will take place a year or more from now: a cross country move.
On one hand, I am perfectly happy with tossing out (giving or selling) all our stuff (although I will miss our composter and IKEA dining table). But since we’ve been sleeping on a futon for about a year and I have frequent backaches (which disappeared when I slept on a real bed for a week), I have been thinking about purchasing a proper mattress. These tend to be expensive especially to someone like me who isn’t very wealthy. The idea of buying a mattress and then moving in a year or so is bothersome. Because even if someone does buy it, it will be at a huge loss…and this bothers me.
