My Next Move is in December
I'm finally moved in to my swanky basement apartment (who knew a basement apartment could be swanky...but it is) and still working out the kinks of moving in. I hate moving. Hate it. Hate it. I do credit myself with being pretty organized when it comes to moving. I credit my parents moving every few years when I was a child and making an absolute mess out of it.
*flashback*
Dad in the garage of my mom's house whilst helping for another move.
DAD: Hey, these our our dishes when your mom and I got married.
ME: Really? Cool. We should actually unpack them in the next place.
DAD: I'll get them.
CRASH! BANG! BOOM! as the box which was not adequately taped at the bottom opened from said bottom and spilled out my history, and inheritance.
So much for Heirlooms.
*end Flashback*
I've always tried to be organized and well-packed so that even the most brutish mover and most likely friend can't break my green/white vase inherited from Grandma L. This move I managed to pack my breakables well, including my new china which was somebody elses wedding china I "inherited" for $25 at a garage sale. But that was about it. This move was a nightmare. NIGHTMARE and I'm too embarassed to fully discuss it. Suffice it to say it was not fun and in the words of my brother it was s 'the worst move ever!'.
I've vowed to never move again...at least not for the next two years unless I can afford to hire somebody to do everything and even then maybe not. This place has a backyard and a grill and a large kitchen and 1 br all to myself. Then I got an email from these guys and I think I'm going to be movin' in December. I'm thinking of enlisting friends to move as well.
For more information about why I'm going to "move" check this info. In this situation moving might not be such a bad thing. If you are in the NY area on December 11th and want to join me send me a comment. If you can't join but still want to help, I'll need your support! More info to follow on my team and how you can donate/help!
