We're moving! Again. But this time for good!
After years of leasing we are finally purchasing our first {together} home. :)))
{More about that later}
We. Are. Moving.
NEXT WEEK!
And I have just started packing.
It's slow going over here since the Baby and I have caught colds.
So our current materials lists consists of:
- Moving Boxes
- Purging Boxes - for items to Goodwill
- Packing tape & Large Sharpie
- Pen, Paper, & Brightly colored labels
- HUGE box of Kleenex
- Ricola Cough Drops {Honey Herb of course}
- And an abundant supply of hot tea
I am striving for some solid organization in the packing process... but my head is feeling a bit fuzzy.
Thank goodness for Emilie Barnes! {Survival For Busy Women} Using her system, every box has a number with a corresponding index card {I'm just using a notebook} listing its contents . I now know where every item is located without having to dig through boxes- I just flip through my handy-dandy list.
Each box is also color-coded with bright stickers to easily and at-glance indicate which room it belongs to. Example: Blue- Office; Yellow- Kitchen; Orange- Family Room, etc.
Simple Brilliance.
Do you have any moving/packing tips to share? I am all ears! Allow me glean from your pearls of moving wisdom!
Happy Wednesday,
Kaylee
