100 Things

I posted this on August 17th but I want my July post ahead of it so I'm changing the "Post DAte".

Mike recently shared the following NYT story with me about reducing the "stuff" in one's life: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/08/business/08consume.html.

The main person in the story downsized her life so she only had 100 things. Mike and I both thought it would be an interesting exercise so I made my list. Here are a couple assumptions: the home is given and includes a refrigerator and a stove/oven.
