Brown

Posted on December 20, 2006 - Filed Under Personal |

My living room is now one solid wall of cardboard boxes.

Ugh.

For someone who doesn’t have a lot of stuff, I certainly have a lot of crap.

Originally, packing was suppose to take two days.  I’m now into day four and everything MUST be done tonight.  Thursday, the POD people show up to take my meager possessions to their storage facility.

I guess it shouldn’t be a surprise that my kitchen was the most difficult to pack.  After all, cooking is one of my favorite past-times.  Pots, pans, utensils, spices . . . As I sailed past box number 6, the realization of my task hit home.  I’m just grateful I didn’t get around to filling up all the cupboards.  Mon dieu! 

But this must be done by tonight.

Thursday, I can relax.  Oh no!  Christmas is coming.  That means I still have to go shopping.  With any luck, the rest of the world has completed their shopping and the malls and stores will be devoid of stressed parents, screaming kids, and barking dogs.

Yeah, right. 

I think I’m gonna cry.

    There’s nothing quite like moving to find out exactly how many things you have. Good luck with it :)

    Thanks BM, I instituted a policy whereas anything with dust on it from the kitchen got tossed. That seemed to help somewhat.
