I love your GAL list - I’m going to do one for myself now I’ve seen yours!
Like you, I want to travel more and have fun weekends. I have an app on my phone called Meetup and I have joined a couple of travel groups for people who want to travel and find others to travel with. I’d def come on your winery tour, lol!!
As for decluttering, I agree it’s definitely a good thing to do. You may find it very cleansing for your soul. As far as the kids -how old are they? Perhaps you could say that you all have too much stuff and there are people more in need than you and that you are taking it to a charity shop. For things you are keeping but packing in boxes, perhaps say that you are planning on a decorating project and will eventually need to empty the room so you are just starting now.
