    Take inventory of what I already have via "shopping" through it all.  If I'm still unsatisfied and craving for something new, determine what I can discard in order to get the new.
    Additionally, while shopping through what I already own, determine the stuff that should be donated.

    My family and I intend to do a corn maze this weekend.  That will incorporate more walking/exercise, being out in nature, as well as quality time spent together.
