Oh, hi there. Wanna see what I’ve been up to?
I am nowhere near being finished yet either. 😦
I don’t know how I’m going to get everything done by Saturday morning when we pick up the moving truck.
Just a few of the things I’ve still go to do:
- wash a couple loads of laundry before the people we’re selling the washer and dryer to come to pick them up
- pack up towels
- pack shoes and dresser clothes
- pack up the pantry
- pack up plates, cups, utensils etc.
- finish gathering the essentials for our first night at the new apartment
- shop for a couple things (water and snacks for our moving helpers)
I’m feeling very overwhelmed.
Taylor’s been helping but he’s just not a worrier like I am. And I’ve accepted the fact that he’ll be doing a lot of the heavy lifting, so I’m ok doing most of the packing (and worrying).
I also am feeling like some of the people on hoarders. I have some things that are relegated to a give away pile. They are perfectly good things (coffee cups, dish drainer, silver ware, vases, just to name a few) that we just don’t need anymore and haven’t used in a long time. But still, I feel attached to those things. Dumb right? I hate the idea of just giving them away, but I don’t have the time or space to sell them. And frankly, if I’m being honest with myself, these are probably things people would only pay a $1 or $2 MAX for at a garage sale so it’s not really worth my time even if I did have the space. So, I’ll gather everything up and bring it to Goodwill and I won’t even give it a second thought after I drop the stuff off. That’s how I know I don’t have a real hoarding problem.
Anyhow. I know it’ll all come together.
I just need to take a few deep breaths. And maybe some wine.
