EMPTY boxes!
\nI spent part of my evening shaping and taping packing boxes from U-Haul. I have some things to pack tomorrow, and more to pack this coming week, and I thought I’d get a start putting together the boxes. That seems to make the packing go faster.
\nI ran errands this morning, and one of the stops was at the U-Haul storage facility near my bank. Their computers were up, and then down, and then up again, so it took a while to get what I needed. I picked up two kinds of tape, small and medium boxes, and dish and glass packs. I have some crystal to pack up, and I didn’t want to trust it to newspaper. I have two boxes ready to go for the last of the china, as well. I also stopped at a local liquor store and asked for some of their ale boxes. I think they will be just the right size to pack up miscellaneous tools.
\nI’m not thrilled about the idea of leaving our beautiful home, but surprisingly, I like the pared down look that I’ve achieved. Well…..I like most of it. There are a couple of walls that seem to be just too bare.
\nMonday, the plumbers are coming to replace some of the faucets in the bathroom and kitchen. We’ve had the sofits and fascia painted, as well as the loft. Bit by bit we are getting closer to putting the house on the market. Soon, I think.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
