Now for
today:
WE have
moved a lot in our nearly 69 years of marriage. Married in York, SC. #1 son was born in Biloxi,
Mississippi. #2 son was born in Kirksville, MO. I can remember when we moved to
Washington DC we put all our belongings in the back seat and trunk of our car.
Moving was easy then. LOL
Now I have collected
so much STUFF it takes a while to make a move, PLUS you learn things. You learn you can actually give things away
and believe it or not, I have actually thrown some of my useless collectings
away.
So maybe
moving is a good thing. LOL It is even hard for me to realize that I have
ALMOST emptied the basement playhouse. WE are getting a head start. WE decided
that we will move into the RV in our back yard next Friday. That way we can take our time packing up here in the house without dodging boxes every evening.
The
continuing story, the life of old people.

We moved quite a bit too and learned the first thing to do when you get to the new house is to set up the bed. Then when you are exhausted you can just plop down in bed!!! :)
We have moved twice in the last 4 years. The first time we went from 3500 sq. feet which included a full basement. To 1430 sq. feet. We had to get rid of so much I thought I'd die.
And let me tell you my kids were interested in nothing.
Then we moved to 1800 sq. feet but it is small for 3 adults.
Good luck - moving hurts, but once you do it I have to say it feels good traveling lighter.
I know how you must feel, packing up and moving isn't easy,. I sold or gave away a lot of stuff on this last move. Now everything I own is in one room of the house. It is filled to compacity. I don't ever want to move again.
Boy, I wish I remembered to "travel lightly" when we moved from Arizona. I'd be embarrassed to admit how much $ we spent on movers hauling a lot of unnecessary stuff across country.
New beginnings may be shadowy ... but exciting at the same time. Happy days ahead!
Move the bed in first then your clothes. Everything else can be moved in slower.
I always have liked moving.
