Moving Updates 8/10

August 10, 2009

So far I’ve emptied out two closets for box stacking, and moved a bunch of things around. Most of our books are either packed up and stacked in the closets, or they’re in another box of things I’m trying to sell.

We have several boxes of Yard Sale stuff that are either already at mom’s (we’re having a yard sale together next month) or they’re here to be taken over there.

We’re selling a bookshelf, a couch, a chest of drawers, and a computer desk. I wish they’d hurry up and sell so we can utilize the space they’re taking up! It’s kind of a pain to deal with, but it’ll be worth it. Plenty of books and other stuff too. Anybody want a Sega Genesis with games? PSOne or PSX? You know you do! =P

Hibbett’s Sports in the mall here had a TONNNN of boxes the other night when we asked. I pulled around to the back of the store and packed a ridiculous amount of empty boxes into the car. Trunk, front passenger seat, back passenger seat, all packed out with boxes! It was crazy, and they’re stored wherever I’m able to store them here in our living room.

Today we dropped by the town’s recycling center and spoke with the manager about grabbing some newspaper for moving. He told us to take as much as we wanted, so I grabbed the milk crate out of our car (we use it for whatever) and stuffed it full of newspapers. WIN! I’ll have to get to packing up frames and decorations and stuff today.

I see progress, but I do feel like I’m running out of time. It feels like we’re moving tomorrow and there’s so much left to do. I do realize that time will fly by so I need to keep getting this stuff done though. Time really does fly, fun or not (those of you sitting in a cubicle may wish to argue – leave a comment =P). I’ve done the last minute packing thing before – it sucks.

Back to being productive.

    It IS flying by. It's been a week since we made the decision! That blows my mind. At the same time, I'm ready for it to come so we can get on with our lives.

    But no matter what, as long as it's with you, I am happy.
