Slow Moving Creature

Moving is a huge challenge for me. Let's face it, I'm a bit of a pack rat. I confess that I have kept birthday cards that were given to me back in junior high. I keep telling myself that one day I am just going to scan them and keep them as a digital file, but do you think that's very realistic? No. I was very good at packing at first for the move. I boxed all the fragile items carefully and labeled the boxes accurately. But of course I got lazy. On moving day I just dumped drawers out in random boxes and wrapped it all up with tape. Bad idea, now each time my companion asks me, "where is this" or "where is that" i have to go hunting through practically each box of bric a brac in my quest.

In other worlds I am a bit relieved to be unemployed during this time. Sure it would be grand to be making some money so I could spend it on the new house, but right now it's for the best thing since I can be available to let the cable guy in, the appraiser in, the gas guy in, the carpet people in...the list of people stopping by never ends. Maybe I can even dedicate some time to unpacking!


I wish being a packrat meant looking this cute!
