I picked up this copper geodesic candle/succulent

I picked up this copper geodesic candle/succulent holder for my math nerd wife. It’s nice to have little touches that speak to our personalities and interests. When we were first downsizing we had to really assess what we wanted to keep and how we could fit our varied interests in a smaller space. Sometimes that meant repackaging board games into Ziploc bags, since the boxes take up a lot of room. Or finding all our favorite movies on streaming channels so we could donate our DVD collection (yes, we still had DVDs.)

For us, downsizing meant assessing what we had, donating or selling items that could better serve others, and keeping only the things that really spoke to us and brought us joy. For example, I couldn’t get rid of my sewing machine and Serger. Not only are they handy for renovations, they also allow me to explore the creative part of my being.

I think sometimes we get too wrapped up in possessions. I’ve heard others say things like “I just have too much to ever live in something like that” or “Do you have a storage unit for the rest of your stuff?” Everyone has their own path and what we do may not work for the next person. We don’t have a storage unit. We are #minimalists, so we choose not to have a lot of stuff. We also didn’t want to pay to put anything in storage when it could have a good home being used by someone else.

What are the hobbies or interests that you would prioritize when downsizing?

🥦🥑🥓🧀🥩

My wife and I tend to eat keto when our lives aren’t crazy in transition (#oreosforthewin). I’ve loved adapting different recipes as we became #fulltimeRVers. My wife’s favorite is keto banana bread. Mine is pulled pork in the #InstantPot with #ghugessugarfreebbq sauce. (#notsponsored)

What are your go-to recipes in your RV kitchen?

😍😍Our newly remodeled RV is for sale!!😍😍

We’re selling our 2015 Keystone Alpine! It’s been our home and we’ve put a lot of work into it. We’re sorry to see it go (we need to downsize to accommodate my wife’s work travels) but we’re excited someone else can make it their home. Or mother-in-law suite. Or Airbnb. Really the possibilities are endless.

Please share this with anyone who might be interested. Tag a friend. Tag a family member. Tag your mother-in-law (hint, hint moms).

DM me if you have any questions or want to learn more!

🎉🎉It’s finally done!!!🎉🎉

After five very long and stressful weeks of chasing after the repair guy, the repairs on our rig are at last complete and the underbelly is sealed up again. It’s such a relief to have that weight off my mind.

What are your RV repair horror stories?

I’ve loved being able to show our RV to some interested people over the last couple of days. It’s such a joy on people’s faces when they see everything we’ve done. We’re showing it to a couple more people in the next few days. Wish us luck and tag any friends you know who might be interested.
