This Packing Thing (26)

I originally had the idea that I would pack a box a day every day (and eventually add on). HA! HA! HA! The thing is that when I have a few minutes to tackle an area, I might end up with 9 half-started boxes (and pray they don't get unloaded before I get back to them). That's theoretically, of course, because I do not have 9 packed boxes yet, or even 9 partially packed boxes. SOON.

But I discovered it is still a good idea to keep up with laundry, feed people, sweep the floor, and clean the bathroom. So I did those things today and no packing happened. Sigh. Tomorrow does not hold "packing" in its horoscope either. Pretty sure.

The trouble with an overwhelming project is that you can accomplish quite a lot in a day and still feel like you didn't do much because you are no closer to the end goal on that project. Except we are. Time is ticking away.

Oh baby - I totally get it. I stood in the middle of my bedroom today, completely overwhelmed by where to even start in packing up my life, so... went out to the living room and opened my laptop. Loving you through this!

I know that you are overwhelmed. Hang in there. Maybe try to fill just ONE box and seal it today. That might make you feel better?
