Packing

Today we got serious. While Robert worked on the garage and basement, I attacked the study and bedroom. I transferred files from the filing cabinets to the boxes, cleaned out closets, purged drawers and sorted. I feel like I never want to buy another thing that will have to be moved. I feel like I'd like to toss out every non-essential so that it doesn't have to be packed and it doesn't have to be unpacked. By the way, someone once told me that you throw out an additional 50% of junk while you're unpacking. I know it's true because when we unpacked in NJ, I almost threw out yearbooks. I didn't, and I'm glad, but it was close!
