Here is my philosophy on moving:
I will be moving at the end of the month. And, this will be the EIGHTH MOVE for me in FIVE YEARS! I have seven rubbermaid containers in my car. They are not in my apartment yet because I refuse to start packing yet. You lose things when you start packing. And it seems to get really messy when you start to pack also. Anyways, ok the first thing I always do is pack ALL pictures, cutesy wall hangings, stuff like that. Everything off the walls. When the walls are bare, it starts to hit you. Next, get all nick nacks(is that even how you spell nick nacks?) and pack them in a box together. All breakable/treasured items must have their own box labeled, ONLY ASHLEY MAY TOUCH! You need to keep this stuff together because the next place I move, I will need this stuff to make me feel at home. Take apart any furniture that you can and tape all the pieces together. Put all nails and washers in a baggy and tape it to the furiture also. Next is the most dreaded area......the kitchen! AHHH I HATE packing the kitchen. It is the worst for two reasons. 1. I have every cooking utensil known to man and it all takes up space. 2. How do you pack a crockpot? The kitchen holds the most akwards items...if you put a crockpot in a rubbermaid container, then half of your container is gone. If you leave it out, it may break. AHHH packing sucks!
I am at lucky break number 4 right now! It is a secret, but when I find out, I shall let eveyone know!
Wish me luck!
