I also trust that with your excellent eyes for houses you'll find a lovely new one. <BR/>As for moving, we moved exactly 1 block last November and it was every bit as chaotic as moving out of town might have been. Maybe more so, because we felt like we could always run back down the street again for more stuff, or to do more cleaning later... Kelly's right, organization is the key, and, umm... it's not our forte :)Judithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01310462426087335112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-40455027638509319332008-03-29T21:37:00.000-04:002008-03-29T21:37:00.000-04:00p.s.

You still have to pack but you can be a lot more lazy about it! Leave the hangers on the clothes, throw them in a heap, etc. leave lids off of boxes, throw odds and ends in the car...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-75197591841835065872008-03-29T21:35:00.000-04:002008-03-29T21:35:00.000-04:00Oh I am just like you!

And I too gave away tons of stuff on Freecycle -- it's amazing what kind of JUNK you can list and have people fighting over it!! One person told me, "you know you could be getting some money for some of this" and I didn't care! I just wanted it GONE! Thank YOU for getting it out of here! :) And actually we are moving next month too so I am in a crunch to read several books so I can get rid of them too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-13392813192563712152008-03-29T11:54:00.000-04:002008-03-29T11:54:00.000-04:00Moving and packing really aren't too bad as long a...Moving and packing really aren't too bad as long as you have a solid plan. It's not my favorite activity, but I have to say that a good plan makes packing and unpacking a breeze. Good luck with you move. I love the idea of housing prices being so cheap.

If not, let it go. <BR/><BR/>I can not believe the cost of houses where you are moving. Is that even possible? I live in Southern California, where you can't buy a condo for under $200,000. So to imagine anything under $100,000 is amazing.Enjoy Birthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13227246774801636777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-31520589871056433822008-03-28T23:14:00.000-04:002008-03-28T23:14:00.000-04:00We've moving one state over.
