What am I doing?
As many of you know, SM and I are moving from Virginia in a couple of weeks. And another fact you may know is that we have lots of books. Now, most of those books are in these twenty-six boxes. I know that those that are coming to help us move will be very surprised to move so many boxes that hold only books. I have always had a love for reading and I married someone who not only loves to read but loves to own the books that he loves to read. Most of those boxes contain his books.
This is the beginning of the pile for the rest of our stuff. It is still quite small but continues to grow with gusto. The rest of the apartment is a disaster zone but slowly but surely I am packing up my life. The good part about moving is the opportunity to go through all my stuff and get rid of things that I no longer need or use. The bad part of moving is having to pack and move the stuff I want to keep.

I know how you feel. We have moved around a lot and I grumble everytime. My husband is a book lover too and loves to accumulate them. He wishes he had more time to read and holds onto them in hopes that he'll get to them someday. I feel like maybe we can accumulate more when we finally settle into a house and not move so much.
I was just thinking of you the other day and your preparations for moving. It seems like the longer you stay in one place, the more stuff you forget about. Enjoy the cleaning out of excess stuff and find lost treasures!
Where are you moving to? We are moving back to Utah (SLC area) next month...so excited! Good luck with the move!
Look how organized you are with your packing!! We are going to miss you guys! Good luck on your trip to Utah. Thanks again for helping me out the other day!
