He might surprise you. Last week Dh went through his tee shirts and told me to scrap most of them. I was blown away.

Two days left.

I'm close to the end. I've a few boxes left to pack. Started filling the suitcases. Mowed the yard for the last time.

My sciatica is acting up. Quitting for the night.

We gave a bunch of old tee shirts to the local animal shelter. They love to get soft material to use for the animals there.

Also, we put a lot of furniture on consignment and have netted almost $1,000 from it. This was a dual good thing--we got rid of stuff we didn't want to move and didn't have space for and also made some $$'s.

We stacked boxes in the garage, stuff that didn't mind the weather.

We put boxes we didn't want outside in a closet.

I started packing before we put the house on the market so as to declutter. I started really packing after we got the 'go' from our realtor.

Tip-the boxes I have packed up, everything inside went into plastic bags first to avoid water damage.

Thanks, CCc girl. I feel a little weird about selling the snow blower, but we did say we'd be out before the snow flew again this year, so I guess this clinches it!

Well, our shipping container arrives on Thursday. I spent the weekend packing and sorting things out, but still have a bit of packing to do. Hoping to help the kiddo pack up the rest of his room today.

Feeling overwhelmed, with this being Monday, and the anticipation of the week ahead. No matter how organized I think I am, it is still stressful to coordinate a move of this magnitude!

Blue, I envy you not having another winter to deal with, the last one was a killer.

Hang in there Rainbow, it sounds like your move is getting close.

I'm tired of boxes and packing.

Going out tonight for a goodbye dinner and drinks with my girlfriends.
