Ugh, moving...how I wish you didn't have to visit me! So, we are getting ready to move within the next two weeks. I never used to mind packing until now. The more I seem to pack, to more crap and clutter seems to appear. I don't understand how someone can accumulate so much stuff over a short period of time (in this house less than a year) Every day and every time I set up a box to be packed, I go into my own little world. Wishing I could be somewhere else and dealing with something else. With my family of course.
Oh, how I wish I could be flying into this island once more...
or waking up to this beautiful view again, every morning..
This ^ is were we spent our honeymoon...
And...slap in the face and back to reality. Weep!
So, everyday I pack little by little. Stuff we don't need for the moment and that we could do without. I wish I could pay someone to come in and pack for us. Oh wait, I could. They are called movers arn't they? Hmm, if only I could! Well nevermind getting someone in to pack. I need people to come in and throw everything out. Do you ever sit amongst all your crap and think, OK, I need to get rid of all this and start over? Start fresh? Yes, that's my thought every day. Except, I just cannot do it. I can't part myself with a lot of stuff. I am in no way a hoarder but I think I could be getting to that stage :) My hubby is always telling me to pull out the stuff that I havn't used in the past 6 months to year and just bin it. But I know, If I got rid, I would be looking for it and I will want it and I will probably cry like a little girl if I knew I had thrown it away and regarded it as junk. I also have a wardrobe full of clothes, that I know one day I will fit back into. Jeans and dresses that I just love (did I really fit into you) Everytime I pull them out to trash them, I stop and say Nope, I will wear you again one day...You just wait and see! I have got to prove that to my hubby too :)
Along with the packing, we have people coming and going viewing the house. I am kinda bummed and sad about it. Although we are only in the house a short while, I was really settled here. Our original plan was to stay here for a few years but our landlord has to sell up for personal reasons. I am sad because this is the house our baby boy first rolled over, first crawled, took his first steps, etc. I know it sounds silly, but I always imagined my kids taking their first step in the same spot as my first baby. I know I can build a ton of memories in our new home and I will always have the memories of this one. And, you know what? We are going to have to do this all over again in a few months when we buy our own home(we are waiting for the right one - I dispise renting) I think I will just leave everything packed up. There is only so much packing I can do without getting burned out :) But I will continue to do it anyway. Typical woman :)
