Counting Down To The Move
Well, it’s Tuesday. I move Friday. I couldn’t be much more excited for this.
I’ve been packing for the past few days, and most of my stuff is ready to go. I’ve been throwing things out, lightening the load as I go through the packing process. There are still a few things I think I should probably let go, but I can’t bear to do it just yet. I’ve done well enough up to this point that I think a few extras are hardly the end of the world.
I packed up another bag of clothes and sent them on to Goodwill yesterday, and tonight I’m going to post a few things on Craigslist one last time and see what happens. It’s hardly the end of the world if they don’t sell, but it’d be nice to get them out to people who’d do more than keep them in boxes in a closet.
Once I move it will be interesting to see how everything fits in to my new place. I have some very generous closet and storage space in my current apartment, but the new one has less storage space and more open space. I won’t be able to just pile boxes up in the closets this time, so I may have to evaluate the need to keep some things boxed up and out of site.
As I said, I’m really looking forward to spending this weekend getting settled in to my new apartment - putting up shelves, hanging art, filing things away. It’ll be a fairly long process, but I’m optimistic that I can have it all done by the end of the weekend. I have a few fantastic friends taking time out of their days on Friday to help me out, and that’s going to make a world of difference when it comes to getting things in their place. Watch for some pictures next week!
