I am emptying a storage locker that I have rented for about six years. I now live in a tiny rented room, and I used the storage locker to hold books, clothes, personal papers, and a few small pieces of furniture. Since I don't have a vehicle, I've been making trips to get everything out of it by taking a wheeled suitcase there and back on the trolley (public transportation). After about 30 trips, my work is nearly done. Everything I've been taking out of storage I have either given away or thrown away because I am working to rid myself of all belongings that aren't absolutely essential. I anticipate having the job done by the end of this week.

After we've finished a big project, there is often an emotional letdown. I want to regulate my emotions, not allowing myself to become depressed at the end of this. So, maybe celebrating in some small way will help me. I will save $79 a month by no longer renting a storage locker, so maybe I could use a little of that money to celebrate the completion of the task. Should I use the money to buy clothes for my upcoming job search and interviews that I hope to start in a few months, or should I splurge on a pizza?

What tasks are you working to complete, and how will you celebrate their completion?

Nice one. It varies, but I typically enjoy a nice meal, go to a movie. Heading back to NYC so maybe I'll start attending the theater again? Do some of the things I've always wanted to do?

Food for thought. Thank you!
