Ugh! The last few days have been a real exercise in the perils of being a pack rat and the advantages of minimalism. A lot of what I'd "saved" I hadn't really saved (intentionally) at all; it just piles up and I don't always have time to go through it. Sigh.
I'm not as far along as I'd hoped to be. The packers arrive this coming Thursday, the movers the day after. Matt has disassembled all that needed such--my stationary bike, my desk, my lingerie chest. Plus he took down the antique chandelier that I'll take with me and installed an inexpensive, but quite decent one in its place. Done.
But still lots to do. DR DRUXY is quite right to start early. I started early, too, and it's still a big task.
