So it is Monday night.... only Monday night and at the same time, thank God it's not Tuesday night! So much still to be done! At this point, we have until Friday to be out of our current apartment. We can pick up the keys to the new place at 9am friday morning. I have a Jeep full of empty boxes that are taunting me to be filled, yet I am so daunted at the mere thought of trying to figure out what to pack next. Even though it's only a few days away, I can't figure out home much kitchen stuff I can pack and how much I will still need. Can I just pack it all and fast until I unpack everything (probably Friday night or Saturday morning)? I do feel some relief by the fact that it is starting to look a little less lived in since I took down all forms of wall decorations about an hour ago. If I can just pack up all the china tonight, I think I will be able to rest a little easier and fall asleep without thinking of what to pack next. Maybe. Probably not. But maybe!
The only thing that gets me through this, though, is the realization that in less than a week, I will have a new residence... one that can actually hold all of my books... one where I can spend quarters and not feel bad that I should be saving them for laundry... one where I will feel more like an adult! Also, the realization that in a week, I will be done packing and moving all of my earthly belongings!
While I'm at it, anybody free Friday and feel like getting a workout carrying boxes of books? I promise I packed them lighter than the 200+ lb. monstrosities last time.... and there are no stairs.... well not that everything has to go up right away at least! :)

Wow...my little sister is all grown up...not only do you have me beat in that whole marriage department, but now you have a real adult home to live in. & here I am freshly settled into my dorm room like living situation. (Although the rent is cheap & the job fantastic!) Believe me, I - of all people - can relate to the whole moving situation. I've moved 3 times in the past 12 months. & there was a 12 month period when I think I moved 6 times. Yeah, I'm not exactly what people would consider stable in my living habits...I most people who work for housing (or cheap housing) generally aren't stable. Anyways, best of luck on the move! I hope all goes well & that you have plenty of help!
