Eleven Days and Counting...

I love snowmen.   Especially stylized ones like above...or real ones.   Looks like several folks are going to be able to make real snowman right now...or iceman!!!

So, today all the boxes that I have packed are either in the storage unit already or in my car ready to be delivered tomorrow!!!   Wow!   When I pack, I number the boxes and indicate contents on a spread sheet.   I literally had 257 boxes when I moved in along with other none numbered things like full suitcases, etc.   I am still at 59 boxes!   There will be more boxes but not 202 more!

I finally arranged to have the furniture moved next Thursday.   At the rate I am going, there won't be that much to move.   I plan on moving shelves on Saturday.   That will help greatly in saving space in the storage unit because I can put 40 boxes on my shelves without using the tops which is where I plan to put my plastic carts so they are out of the way and won't get damaged.

If I can get most things out of the house next Thursday, that will give me time to clean, wash clothes and put the finishing touches on my trailer before I leave.

Tomorrow, besides taking stuff to storage, I want to begin packing the kitchen things as well as bring up the boxes from the basement.   These include Christmas decorations and tools.   When I moved in, I had 23 boxes of Christmas decorations - and they were not small boxes.   I have pared that down considerable.   Not sure how many, but they take up less than a quarter of the original space.   I'll let you know how many tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by...
Football this evening...
See you tomorrow...
