The coming months
Sort through personal belongings
Start with the items family has specifically asked about. Then work room by room, dividing into keep, distribute, donate, sell, and discard. Some families do this quickly; some take a year. There's no right pace.
What you'll need
- A list of items family has asked about
- Boxes and labels
A gentle reminder
You don't need to do this now. If a room feels too hard, close the door and come back next month. Belongings will wait.
