Make sure that your #renovation is taking shape in line with your growing savings account.

Renovations invariably attract extra expenses, so if budgets are tight, putting aside a regular weekly amount, however meagre, will be a welcome relief upon project completion.

When your contractor and design plans are firmly in place, the next step is to devise a mutually agreeable (and contractually stipulated) timeline. Of course, leeway for small timing blowouts is often perfectly natural and usually accountable, so long as they don’t affect your bottom line.

Doing your research pays dividends at renovation and sale time.

Invest the time and, more often than not, you’ll be the winner.

Downsize to a Richer, Happier Life

Bob Owens Retirement Village

What do you want to do with your life? Would you like to travel, downsize, have more money and more free time? Do you ever feel like your stuff holds you back, but the thought of decluttering just seems too hard? If so, you’re not alone.

What do you want to do with your life? Would you like to travel, downsize, have more money and more free time? Do you ever feel like your stuff holds you back, but the thought of decluttering just seems too hard? If so, you’re not alone.

This is the first of a series of articles dedicated to helping you to downsize, declutter and rightsize your life, brought to you by Ryman Healthcare in conjunction with decluttering expert Peter Walsh.

When helping people to declutter, Peter never starts by focusing on the stuff itself. Every item in your home has a story, so the first step is to think about what that story is.

Maybe you’re thinking about downsizing as you approach retirement but still have all the artwork and toys and books that belonged to your now adult children, and don’t know what to do with them. Perhaps letting go of that old sports equipment means letting go of a vision you had of yourself that no longer fits who you are. Maybe you’re holding onto heirlooms you have no use for because you want to keep the memory of the person alive.

No matter what your situation is, it’s easier to declutter and downsize if you start by identifying the feelings that underlie your attachment to your stuff before tackling the stuff itself.

This little momma and her babies here to ask you a question... can you give him some love? Literally! ❤️ With the number of animals needing SPCA’s help on the rise, and the number of foster homes due to go down in the upcoming holiday season, we need foster homes now more than ever.
