Moving Tales

Hello,

With the help of a friend, eleven more boxes are now packed. Last night and this morning I gathered things from the kitchen and put them in the dining area. It did make packing a little easier as the items could be seen and considered. Next it was upstairs to pack bedding from the spare bed and warm winter weight blankets. The linen closet is mostly empty. As with the kitchen it is just things that we need to live with for a week yet. Most of my winter clothes are now in boxes and some shoes are in as well.

We finished about noon and I am ashamed to say that I did not invite her for a scrambled egg lunch. She might have liked that. Otherwise I am rather short on company food.

Packing is quicker when there is just talk, and the next task is ready and waiting in the docket.

We will probably take the computer down next Monday, if there is no rain Tuesday we will move things to storage. After that it will be catch as catch can. Everyday a laptop grows more appealing, after all with wireless we can be connected most of the time that we want. Who remembers that 15 years ago life was perfectly acceptable without constant contact on the computer? Now it hardly bares thinking about it. Does that mean I have not become as connected to the people around me?

Moving decisions about health insurance, disability insurance, and
FSA contributions occupy the mind. It would be nice if someone could just tell us the perfect answer. Neither of us wants to deal with all of this. Besides that, where is the perfect forwarding address for our mail? It is so much easier just to slip from job to job without a break. There are decisions there too, but more mundane such as what doctor, dentist, and hair stylist to use.
