Moving

My wife and I are moving in a little over a month. We had been searching for a larger apartment for ages that we could afford. One finally came through.
Now comes the hard part, the physical move. We have to find all of those bloody boxes. We have to wrap all of the plates and glasses. (The ones I haven't already broken that is.) We have a ton of movies that have to be boxed, along with all of those books that have been collected over the years.
Isn't it amazing how much we gather around us?
It won't be easy finding a mover on our budget. When my sister moved, she had to shell out almost eight hundred dollars. There are a few low cost moves in the area, but you get what you pay for with them. Those are the "just toss it in the truck" kind of movers. We have a few really nice things, and it would be nice if they stayed that way.
All things being equal though, moving will be great when it's all over with. We will be in a space where we aren't crawling over each other just to reach the phone. I look forward to getting off of this futon at night. Then there is the kitchen table. We had to get rid of it to make space, and there are a lot of things that would be a lot easier with a table to sit at.
Moving is great, once it's done.
