Packing realizations

~We will never be able to leave this house in the cover of darkness because we have FAR TOO MUCH clothing.
~How many sweaters is it o.k. to have? Should one keep a big fluffy bright pink turtle neck sweater just in case? Are turtle neck sweaters even cool anymore?
~I have purged a lot in the last 6 months but somehow it just does not seem to be enough
~Movers are very very expensive so we are moving ourselves and using PODS.
~Despite having too many clothes I hate my current wardrobe and would love a shopping spree, but wouldn't we all.
~Sleep is going to be lacking, and eating habits I think are going to continue to slide in the next two weeks. My growing gut and thighs can attest to that. However I get more sleep than my husband so I should not complain.
~We do a walk through of our new place two weeks tomorrow.
~5 years ago we got a chaffing dish and a plug in grill. We have yet to use them, will we?
~ Play-dates keep O and I sane
~O's clothes and toys will take up a lot of room in POD
~5 years ago we moved in with wedding presents, a futon, an old table, and lots of text books.
~We are getting closer and I am starting to feel it.

  1. Jilla - I have a closet purging RULE. If you have not worn it in the past YEAR it goes. Better to have a few things that you love vs a lot that you kind of tolerate...lol. Wish I was there to help - I LOVE clearing out closets...seriously. GOOD LUCK friend.
