On the way home from helping Karen's parents load their U-Haul for their move to California, we realized that we still have way too much stuff. We don't want to have to move all the stuff that we now possess. Why is it that we humans are like pack rats--we hold on to too much stuff and always want more. We started naming all the items that we would like to get rid of before we move--oak roll-top computer desk that weighs a ton, a futon we never use, an extra freezer we don't need now that we aren't raising beef, etc., etc. I guess we will have a moving sale when the time draws nearer. How much extra stuff do you have that you really don't use or need?
We did get Karen's folks packed up and on their way to CA. Karen's brothers and Dad did some errands on Monday morning so we didn't get started packing the truck until after 11:00am (Karen and I were a little frustrated waiting around for them to get back with the truck). But we had the 26' truck loaded, with a little room to spare, by 3:00pm. After gathering up the last few odds and ends we left their house about 3:30pm with Karen's brothers driving the U-Haul pulling the extra car, and her folks following in their pick-up with 2 dogs.
Speaking of dogs, we started to think about our dogs if we have to fly somewhere to interview. Anyone know of a good dog-sitter?
