I'm climbing the walls

I hope that your moving project will be over soon. That way you can try and relax. It is definitely a lot of work moving and it can be stressful. Especially if you have other people helping you. Everyone tends to get stressed out when family members are moving.

We are moving on Saturday too!! Although moving is always stressful, I am actually more stressed about what happens after we get to the house. This is our first house - and we're having all sorts of repairs and such done right now. The house wasn't a fixer, but it's certain OLD - so there will be a lot to do (in time) once we are there. Even when we get there, the kitchen will only be half done - but I can live with that (I think). So I am overwhelmed about all the work that will need to be done just to settle in!! I did just that with the drawers when we moved into this apartment. But I did it because we were only moving about 50 feet away (we moved into a bigger apartment). We had movers move the big stuff, but I didn't feel like packing the little stuff. So I just moved a lot of the stuff myself - including drawers with the clothes in it! And for the drawers that were too big to carry, I dumped the clothes neatly in separate bags - so I can dump them right back in - ha ha! Best of luck with moving this weekend - please wish me luck too!

it is actually the easiest way to move and gives you less work to do when you get to your new house, that is how I move

i know what you mean but just try and calm down a little. i found out that things are not as hard usually as i imagine. sounds like your sil has a good idea and he will likely have things in order till you wont need to worry. at least they are not making you leave things you want.

If your mjoving the dresser why not tape, or tie the drawer shut with the clothes in it?. I hate moving and wish you luck as I would be stressing to themax as well especially if someone was telling me what to do as well.

Just cool down , everything will be ok.

Actually what the SIL said about the drawers works really well, as long as someone is able to carry the drawers while they are loaded. If you feel the contents might get dusty put a plastic garbage bag over the drawer plus its contents. It saves a lot of work in the long run. You need something to do that will fully engage your mind so that you can worry less about this. How about doing some of your crochet? The rhythmic movement is quite soothing.

well just think it will all be over soon, and then u get the fun of unpacking i always hated that part lol we would all be so tired from packing things in.. that is when i usualy got stressed out.. or over whelmed from all the stuff.. i wish you much luck, and happiness.. try not to stress to much.. you will be in your new home sooner then you think.. take care :)

Your SIL is right about keeping the clothes in the draws. It does make it easier. I have moved several times and have always done that. I am hoping things will get better for me as well because things where I live are terible. I am living with my parents (because Randy's health is not good) and there are better doctors here in Nevada and all my mother can say is hire a nurse so you can go back to work. I refuse to leave Randy alone nor will I hire a nurse because I am capable of taking care of him myself. My parents are behind in all their bills because they spend more than they make and I refuse to pay their debts. I wish you the best of luck with packing and with the new house.
