And the Last But Not Least Part of the Downsizer Plan TIME



















Contract your mind to have an end date to
have the downsized stuff out of your life
from the first day  you decide to give it up
and pass it on. Write it down and stick to
it. I have not been doing that and I started
wasting my life trying to sell these cards.
But I am back on track. I have a plan to list 10
100 postcard lots a day til they are all online.
If they do not sell by January 7th I will not
drop the price I will give them to a group
I already give things to. And this is the 10th
lot for today! Amen ! The plan takes the
stress out of your life and gives you the
ok to do what you hav e to do to get
them to their next happy owners!

Have Your $ Plan and Your Happiness Plan Before You Downsize




















Ahhhh! Love those people in Tarpon Springs!
Good looking and healthy looking!
REAL downsizers go for the $ but won't
dump the happiness of the next owner aspect either.
Right now it is hard to get your ideal
$$$ so have a bottom amount you will accept
and if you can't get
that ...GIVE it away and make someone
happy who can't afford it rather than
give it to the person who just wants
it for its flipping value and tries to drive the
price down even lower.

From Spotsylvania Va to Quebec and Back in 10 Days!















Now downsizing this postcard took my memories waaayyy back to the 1970s when we went to visit a teacher friend & her family who had moved back to Connecticut from Virginia! Our friends were living in Stafford Springs Conn at the time. We decided to explore more unknowns. So they designed us a trip and we traveled up through the Green Mountains in Vermont into Canada (no passports needed then) all the way to Quebec City (absolutely beautiful and fast driving on the transCanadian Highway!) and then back south through New Hampshire's White Mountains. And we did this tram up this very mountain. It was the FIRST aerial tram in North America. So much fun! So scary! They have a little cam at this site. Check it out:
Then we headed into Boston and all the historic spots around there and then on to Mystic Conn the whaling town and then ate lobsters on a picnic bench outside! SO  YUMMY! When we left Va in that August it was 98 degrees and by the time we stopped at relatives in New Derby Vt two days later it was 42 degrees and they had a fire going! But of course by the time we headed back it was Va hot again! So many good memories even though this postcard was not purchased by us. It is not used and not new but I don't know its age. We are still friends, kids are grown, some of us have whiter hair and more pounds but ahhh the memories are so good!
