as tim leaves soon now and i dont want to be left with all the packing, the mover comes next week and takes the stuff we cannot bring by plane. we started packing today and now the house looks like a total mess, boxes, clothes, shoes, books are lying around everywhere..... stuff we want, stuff we dont want, stuff we want to sell, give away, or are not yet sure about... piles and piles... it makes me nervous as i dont know whether we will end up with far too many boxes (i.e. a very expensive move), or that we forget stuff or that i bring stuff that, when it finally is delivered in amsterdam, i actually dont want at all!! (it takes about 8 to 12 weeks before it is shipped over). moving does clean up, we both have a lot of stuff we decided we dont need anymore.... but its hard to get rid of some stuff, even though i didnt look at it for over a year, or didnt wear... stuff i wouldnt get rid of if i didnt have to get it to the other side of the ocean.... but well...
