Overwhelmed

boxes

Look what just arrived at my house. The thought of packing everything that we own simply overwhelms me. But at the same time I have a strong desire to get started.

Perhaps the stress of the move has given me startitis. At Hobby Lobby the other day I found some Lion Brand Jiffy on clearance and bought some to start another Critter Knitter's blankie. I'm making this one using the feather and fan stitch.

And can you guess what I cast on last night?

Oh, I feel for you. [grin] I also just sold my house, and am starting to pack up all our stuff prior to moving.

Looking around at the enormity of everything compared to the stack of boxes is sort of like not realizing how big your car is until you have to wash it.

Just make sure you keep a knitting bag out of blast radius until everything is unpacked at the new place. You'll need something to help you preserve inner tranquility.

i had to giggle when i saw the boxes. it reminded me of our move 2 yrs ago after living in the house for 39 yrs. what junk was accumulated. i told my husband that we aren't keeping junk in this house. i am going to say OUT OUT Out it goes. Enjoy your lovely house. more pictures, ok???

Oh my. I feel your pain. I threw out three dumpsters of stuff! Guard your stash well. My stuff had to go one of four places: dumpster, storage, new quarters, weekend getaway. Somehow, my extensive Vittadini stash is lost...I fear forever! Well, it will be worth it nevertheless - your new home is just beautiful...just has the best "bone structure". I found that if I just made myself just do one cabinet - that began a cascade of wild packing. That will be all it takes for you too!

Looks like you are borging along with packing...
