Take it or Leave it?

Today is sea container packing day!  I am stressed and relaxed at the same time and I don't know what to do with myself. It is better for getting through customs if the movers pack everything. So I tried to arrange everything in piles in each room. Found a pot and two glasses in my dishwasher I wanted to  send along, just as the packer was about to finish packing the kitchen.

We kept one pot, spatula, cutlery, plastic plates, bowls and cups. Our summer clothes and a towel each should do the trick for the next week and a half. It was kind of like packing for a two week vacation and the rest got packed away for a long time.


As the truck was being loaded I still didn't know what to feel. It is weird, not really knowing what to expect for the next month or two.


The house is kind of empty. A few things are still hanging around. I think we need a garage sale.  I just don't have the time or energy to take one of my last two Saturday mornings to do it. Into storage(our basement) it goes and we will deal with it when we come back.

Everything is packed and gone. Hopefully it will meet us in China not too long after we arrive.
