The boxes to the right now line what used to be a very wide hall and is no more.
Well, it is amazing how much stuff a family can own. Then you have to move it and take it from its normal spot; the house just gets messier and messier and harder to function in, but yet you still have to pack more. On top of that, two nights ago in my sleep somehow I tossed the right side of my back out -- so much fun, packing. Not!!!
It is kind of weird the way all the stuff just sort of starts to collect in one room after it has been unloaded of books, toys, and what not. The nice thing is, my kids are trying to be helpful; not really succeeding -- more under foot than anything -- but they are trying so hard; it is sweet.
The move will be worth it in the end. The kids will have their own rooms, and I will have a bigger sewing room in the hopes of keeping everything in it to a major extent and not have it hidden all over the house. At the moment, trying to make a project is like hide and seek trying to remember where I put the supplies.
Don't forget to sign up for my blogiversary give away in a few weeks; the link is also to the right on the side bar if the one in this post shouldn't work for some reason. Sign up closes the night of July 3rd. As soon as the comments hit 100, I will be adding another mini quilt; this next one is a yoyo quilt. So tell your friends, the more the merrier.
We were the same when we moved! I have insisted that everything in the attic was looked through when we arrived rather than just being put back in the attic!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your move!
I have GOT to get more bins for us--using them instead of boxes has been a slower transition for us. It's time to get organized!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it IS amazing just how much you have and how disarrayed everything gets when you're trying to pack it all up...
