About this listen
In early 2011, a medical event in her father’s life changed everything for author DJ Anderson. With her mother already dead she was forced to face the reality of an accumulation of belongings that had been ongoing since 1954. “I never set out to become an expert in downsizing,” says DJ. But an expert she has nevertheless become.
With the overwhelming task of cleaning out her parents’ home, came the need for a plan. Through the lens of her experience, DJ has developed a strategy intended for those still living with all that they have accumulated. She encourages her readers to use her experience as a template. “Do it for your children,” she says. “Do it now, before you get sick, while you still can make decisions. Free yourself from your stuff and save your children, or other family members or friends, from having to do what I had to do.”
Written in the form of a memoir, DJ’s category-by-category strategy can also be used by those facing the task as she did. Her clear-eyed, no nonsense prose is both encouraging and sympathetic. This is a must read book for every generation, especially those who find themselves past retirement with the time required to take on the task.
