Getting married next week, so about time I moved some stuff over to the flat.
Mike's been taking his stuff bit by bit over the last few months, but I didn't even want to THINK about the hassle... well, time to bite the bullet, so I've been spending my public holiday packing up books and clothes and musical instruments. Mike, the poor dear, is going to come and help me actually shift it.
He's a brave man to do so, because he chose a wife who has a LOT of books (and our flat is two storeys up and no, there's no lift).
The last time I moved house, I was nine, and Mum took care of all the packing. I'm having enough trouble moving one person, let alone a family of five. She and Dad were super-organised - Mum inventoried every box as she packed it, and numbered each box, and Dad put everything in a database. So when there was a cold snap just after we moved, and she needed our winter jackets, it was easy to track them down.
Me, I'm just going to wing it this time, but that's a useful system to bear in mind in case I ever have to move again.
Off to fill some more boxes...
Only a week left huh? .. You'll soon be a Mrs !

Hi! When we have moved, the books are certainly the bulk :) we have boxes and boxes and boxes...Now I have made a commitment to myself (as from this month) I won't buy any more books until I have read all the ones I have bought and haven't read. I am afraid I am a book addict...which is not bad...but...I need to save :) Therefore, I am banned from visiting bookshops this month :)
