It has occurred to me that when our divorce is final, I will need to do some furniture shopping. I have always been one to begin with the end in mind. m.huffpost.com/uk/entry/5630681 |

When my X moved she took a lot of the furnishing. That was Ok with me as she had bought most of them. In a way it was one of the best thing that could have happened. Our home was only 5 yrs. old and she had decided on the colors, furnishings, etc. With her departure I set about repainting with the colors that fit my personality. I also bought different furniture(some new, some from Craigslist) and the end result is that my home now is reflective of me and who I am. It was really cathartic. I got a feeling it will be for you also.

I am the one who moved out and I didn't take much. He kept it all and actually displays, still, pictures I had purchased when we were married. (I saw a Facebook post of his new living room with his new woman through a friend of friend in my newsfeed one day and had to laugh). My current husband and I both left all the old stuff behind and let our exes have it because the energy that comes with that stuff is heavy and neither of us wanted it. Well, that's obviously not true for everyone (our exes for example). But I can't imagine having a house full of stuff that was in that life. Ick. I loved our blank slate. The first artwork for the wall we bought together was on our 1 year anniversary a beautiful birch bark piece. I feel so much freaking joy everytime I glance at it - there's good memory tied to it. I never wanted to take any of the bad memories forward, that's for sure! Thankful my husband is the same. I would HATE a house full of his ex-wife's STUFF. lol Ick.
