I don't like wicker. But it's cheap. Wife likes it. So do the cats.

Why am I homeless? Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

We have a plastic wicker couch that is claw- and moisture-proof. It works great.

Plastic wicker, not being actual wicker, is superior. So, yeah.

The inspection went well and we are moving forward. We close on Valentine's Day. I want to start moving NOW.

Try and pack a box a day. I didn't and I regret it. I still had stuff to pack on moving day. I still can't find shit because at the end of that day, I didn't care what the hell I threw in a box. Last time I moved I had the movers do everything, including the packing. I don't know what possessed me to deviate from that excellent idea.

When are you moving? I am busy that day, but I wanted to wish you luck.

Yesterday we did the preliminary "getting organized" shit and I have already started packing things we don't use every day like linens and grandma's dishes. It is so fun!
Oh! And more in the "Good News for Voodoolily" thread: I got a promotion and a 10% raise today! Hooray! It's nice to get that after the loan was pre-approved so we won't hafta eat ramen and PB&J every day.

Conrgatulations! I have to ask -- did you color the border of your avatar or did you just randomly find one that is perfectly color co-ordinated?

So with that raise, what do you have to do now? Chase Grizzly Bears instead of Black Bears?
But anyway, nice job. Start packing now. When I moved, I only had my own room to account for, and...well, I was in no rush to do it. At the end of the day, I still have about 2 boxes still unpacked - nowhere to put the shit.

Hey, congratulations on the promotion! It sure does make mortgage stuff easier. I got one last year...and it's the last I'll ever get here unless I go get a Master Degree...
Don't worry about packing, do like I do, fill up rubbermaid totes and dump them in the appropriate room of the new house. Head back to the old house and refill them, repeat as needed. I didn't have a lot of stuff when I moved five years ago. First time I've ever been in the same place for five years...where did all this crap come from!?

I don't have any advice on packing except that I did it wrong, somehow. There are things that we somehow lost in the move, which we did ourselves of course. Part of the problem was that we moved all of our shit into a storage facility first, then into the new house 6+ months later. Still not sure where that stuff went, though.

Same with us, although no storage facility involved. Things just sort of fell into the void.

Grats on the raise, VDL! I would be happy with a raise half that size =)

This is actually a real portrait of Britney and Abby, teenaged polycephalic girls who are pretty famous for being the famous-est two-headed girl(s) in America. We watched a show about them on Discovery Health and I really wanted to find the snapshot from the show where they are going down a water slide and all happily grinning for the camera two-headed style, but that woulda been too perfect. Oh, and thanks everybody! It feels good to ding. |
