Still storage crazy

When we lost our home on March we put everything in storage over 300 miles from here, loaded the truck and came here. Since then we've bought what we have to have because we can't afford to go get our things. Then we keep talking about what are we going to do with all that stuff?? We don't want to pay for storage for the rest of our lives and if we learned anything from losing our home and almost becoming homeless is this, possessions are just things and although you like and want them they do not control your life and you can live without them.

So yesterday while sealing off the old gas vents on the side of the RV we started talking about the back room of the RV. In there are a set of built in bunk beds, a small floppy table, two benches, and two small closets (one that is useless due to the tilt of the back of the RV unless you use baby hangers). We know the bunks have to stay because the lower bunk houses the water and electrical below it and the upper is wonderful storage. We also have to keep on closet because it's linked into the bathroom. We however don't need the rest.

So what we are thinking is to take out the benches, table, cabinets above the table and extra useless closet. In it's place we will put floor to ceiling shelving and a lot some room for my husband's tool cabinet since he needs his tools for work (Maintenance man). This will allow for more storage of stuff located in the storage until, ex.. extra sheets, clothing, junk!

As for the rest of the items we've already started finding them homes from 300 miles away because why would we keep a household washer, dryer, 2 deep freezers (we are keeping one), entertainment center... The are just fodder for a fire because they would never fit in an RV. The big plan is to get rid of what we can before moving the rest. Then bring the rest here and putting it short term in a storage building. Then we can go through everything and sort it out. Then sale what we can and give the rest to a mission here in town.
