somewhat settled

Eighty percent of my stuff was brought to our first marital home last Saturday, and we had managed to unpack all the boxes.  Miraculously, everything fit. 

AND...

WE HAVE MORE ROOM!!!!

This is very reassuring.  Granted I had a number of rounds clearing things, there was always that nagging feeling that maybe I did not let enough go.  I did pull out some more items while unpacking and I think this constant evaluation is something I will be implementing at home.

I'm quite confident that the rest of my stuff still at my brother's will fit.

Next steps?

This week:

• Fiance hands over old flat (clean!)
• Dinning Set for delivery
• Revisit and finalise dinning set layout (eg. Rugs, Lamp, etc.)

Next Week:

• Move some more clothes and shoes from brother's
• Buy shelf / drawer organisers
• Secure lamp bulbs
• Organise media wires in living room

just pack

Packing is never easy--but somehow it comes naturally to me.

Typically, it would take me this long to pack.  The trouble with this move is that while my things will go on Saturday, I am still living here till after the wedding.

So as I pack I need to consider:

• Will I use this the next few weeks?
• Will I bring this for my wedding holiday?
• Should I give this away?

It takes more the double the time it should take because of the over analysis.

I was complaining to my fiancé about it yesterday when he said:

Just pack everything except some clothes and basic toiletries.  Get the movers to bring your stuff over, you can do your screening here, just be done with packing.

Turns out, he is right.  

I am done :)
