Prep
I am unofficially one of the worst packers you may meet. I have moved a total of three times in my life, (Florida, Baylor, with my hubby) and I can’t recall any real details about how I did it. It’s all a little hazy. I do remember the morning I was supposed to leave for england and I was still stuffing things in my suitcase. It is at this point that I make an encouraging list to keep my spirits up.
1. I love the idea of getting rid of things for my friend Rhonda’s awesome garge sale. I already have two trash bags filled with stuff. This equals progress.
2. I have no idea how to pack dishes or other valuable breakable things. I will not worry about that now and save it for later. Whew.
3. It’s fun imagining how much better all our stuff will fit in a house than a condo. It also makes it harder to throw stuff away.
4. We could put pink hearts on our christmas tree (sadly still up) and call it a valentine’s day tree.
5. How in the world do you pack stuff that you’re going to need pretty much every day? Should I regulate myself to a weeks worth of clothes and wear them for a couple weeks straight?
6. I’m done. Not sure if this is really even a list.
7. Dinner should be good tonight. I’m making panag curry.
Always important to end on a positive note. ![]()

I like the valentine’s tree! Do it!
I hate packing, I think I’ve moved seven times in the last five years (14 if you count the to and from part of it all). Pack everything you don’t use every day and do your clothes last! Those can be quickly shoved into a box and then unpacked first with minimum wrinkleage!
And label all your boxes/bags/etc.!
