Once you decide to move into a senior
living community like MorningStar of Sparks, you may be
faced with downsizing decades’ worth of personal items and a houseful of
furnishings. It is no wonder it feels
like an overwhelming task.
Organizing experts have several tips to
help you get started such as beginning with an inventory of your
possessions. After that, create a list
of the things you do not want to part with and another list of items you would
like to give away to family and friends.
Now measure the size of your new suite
and create a floor plan that gives you a realistic idea of how your furnishings
will fit in your new place. If the unit
is a studio or a smaller, one bedroom, you do not want to be so crowded you
cannot safely move around. It may even turn
out that you need to buy some things like a smaller couch or coffee table.
Your next step should be to evaluate
the things you want to keep to determine if you will have the room. The process will require some give and take but
keep in mind you do not want to bring a lot of useless clutter to your new home.
Also remember at communities such as MorningStar
of Sparks, we do the cooking and serve the food restaurant-style.
Any possessions that are left can be
sold, donated or recycled and some charities will even come and pick up pieces
of furniture and items you do not want. When
you get into your new suite, use bins and shelving to help organize everything
so you can easily get to it.
