@MrsSl82be: Aww, thank you! I know you would! I hate moving. We purposely picked the date because DH KNEW he'd be home. Wrong again! Boo :-(
@Lindsay12.31.2010: I feel the same way about moving. I told hubs not again until we can afford to have people do it for us! I so feel your pain. But at least I had him, plus a few big guys to help us, so by the time everything was being unloaded, I could start unpacking. I was so glad that I labeled all the boxes, so people didn't have to ask me about every box
Awww moving is the worst! I wish I was there to help, well at least help you enjoy your wine. :)
The last 10% of a move I usually just find myself throwing stuff in boxes, no rhyme or reason to it anymore. Any form of organization suddenly goes out the window because I am just over it by that point.
Totally feeling your pain today.
@MrsSl82be: Well, I do have that in my favor. I labeled all of the boxes with neon labels. Right now we live in a one bedroom apartment but are moving to a bigger place with an upstairs, so I will need people to help sort them out.
I will if you come down here in a few months to help us out!
@MissAsB: That seems like a fair trade :-) I don't mind helping other people move, but when it comes to my own stuff....that's another story. I just packed some, and then decided to eat an ice cream bar. Now I'm watching Sex and the City. LOL.
@panterapeach: that was how it was for us. We both worked full time, I had to finish my last 2 weeks of college, and we still had to pack. It was pure madness the night before and morning of. I was packing up until we left!!!
@Lindsay12.31.2010: at least you can spread out some! But you know? We went from basically the size of a 2 bedroom apt to a 3 bed 2 bath house with basement, and we still had plenty of stuff to fill it with! I couldn't believe how much we actually had until we moved...
How far away are you moving? Our move should be easy since we will stay in the same town so I can move piece by piece without having to pack everything and not have access to it for weeks.
@panterapeach: I totally see the throwing everything in boxes stage. That is kind of where I am now. I would share my wine with you. We ended up with an extra 2-3 cases after the wedding - so I've got plenty to go around.

@MissAsB: Oh, we are just moving across town! I just have to move everything in six days, 4 of which I will be working all day! I do have a moving truck though, so I was hoping to get everything in one trip, if possible.
Where in Missouri do you live? My DH and I just moved across town this past weekend so I know how you feel. Moving is never fun but it's always nice when you finally get settled in.
@bride21: We live in Columbia. Not too far from you! About three hours. You are near my hometown, Lebanon! I went to MSU my first semester!
Nevvvvvvvver pack the coffee maker!! lol aw!
@Lindsay12.31.2010: That's cool! I have lived in Salem, Bolivar, Buffalo, and Pleasant Hope as well as Springfield. I like seeing that other people on here live close by. It makes me feel closer to some of you. :)
@Oneeleven: Worst decision, ever. I was in a packing frenzy that day. I've been hitting Starbucks like crazy, but I don't want to drive there right now. It was definitely a poor choice.
I made hot tea yesterday (I usually use the Keurig for the hot water) and joked to DH that I had to boil water like a peasant. LOL. Ahh, the things we take forgranted...
boiling water the old fashioned way?
@Oneeleven: I know...it was terrible...especially considering I only had one pot.
Haha! I always used to just boil water. That Keurig has spoiled me, big time.
When I moved out of my college apartment, I packed my toothbrush and toothpaste (I still had one night to stay). Then couldn't find it. I had to drive to the store and get a bunch of personal items I packed up. :-/ At least you just had to make a Sbux run! lol.
@TheLionQueen: Haha, that sounds like something I would do too! I have all of the essential bathroom items in a clear tub with a lid, that way I can just throw the lid on and go!
@Lindsay12.31.2010: That is a good idea, for sure! I packed all my bathroom stuff in boxes! Bad idea. Deff bad idea. For me, that's the worst part of moving...knowing what to pack first and where.
@TheLionQueen: Well I should be an expert - this is the second time in two years I have moved our stuff without DH! I did pack my business phone charger so had to dig through a few boxes to find it. I should have just bought a new one.
Right now I am running the last load of dishes through the dishwasher so I can pack them too. I am down to paper plates, disposable silverware, a saucepan and a skillet. Plus I already cleaned out the oven so no baking ;-)

I am in that awkward stage where 75% of our apartment is totally packed...and I have packed too many things that I need.
I am sitting here angry that I packed my Keurig. Not to mention last night our power went out, and I had already packed all of our candles and a lighter. DH suggested I go buy some more and read, but I'd have to buy a book, since I have packed all those too.
We move in 6 days, and I am grouchy that I have to move alone, again. DH won't be home until the 18th. I am very crabby today, and I don't want to pack anything else. Not to mention that I need some help! Who wants to join me? I will reward you with pizza and cupcakes ;-) Oh, and lots and lots of wine!
