Well That Was Fast...

Wow...250 lbs goes FAST!

The movers were supposed to arrive between 10 and 12 this morning. To my utter shock, they got here early!

Luckily, I was ready.

I set aside a pile of stuff on our spare bed. I told them to start with my clothes, and then we'd work through the pile in priority order.





Who knew I had so many clothes??

They packed all my work clothes, shoes and golf shirts.

And that was 150lbs!


I immediately knew I would not be getting all of my pile into the the next 100lbs. So I put in pet food, pillows, some sweat shirts, coats (gotta have the coats!), towels, extra sheets, a blanket.

And that was 107lbs!

Well crap...

So we took some stuff out. I can mail myself the sheets. I had wanted to have some office decorations early on, but that too can wait.

So we pulled stuff out, added in the wii and a few games.

The rest, including the new tv, will have to go into my HHE. Thank goodness post has a tv in the welcome kit!


Tomorrow, the HHE folks come. I am nearly done with all my sorting. I have created a "safe place" where I can stash anything I want to make sure is NOT packed.

Like my suitcases. And the pets.

Boy is that a familiar scene! I had to take stuff out of my UAB to put in HHE and some stuff that wouldn't fit in the suitcase or UAB was put in a box and shipped to me. Just arrived today and beat the UAB, so that's an option for you, too. Good luck, and I know what you're going through!

I mailed myself two boxes weeks ago (a cage for my parrot and sheets for the bed...embasy sheets suck) and they re already there. I mailed my wii games today and will send the other box of stuff tomorrow.
