I had a spreadsheet too! With a complete inventory of each box. It made unpacking so much easier.
And what's the fun in becoming an immortal demon if you're not regular, am I right?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I've managed to have a somewhat productive morning--farmer's market and safeway, done three loads of laundry (not put away yet though), tried that exercise thing I've heard so much about, and a tiny bit of work stuff.
Now though, I think it's shower/lunch/TV time before I dive into the cleaning and work stuff again.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Given my relatively small amout of stuff, my unpacking philosophy is to do it all ASAP. Like, everything out of boxes on the second day. But I would have had no idea if a box had gone missing.

I made the borscht, which is more like beet-cucumber soup, since I forgot I didn't have as many beets as the recipe called for, and I had plenty of everything else. And I forgot to wear gloves, so my hands are a little stained pink. And THEN I had a snack of zucchini, for which I feel I deserve a medal.

We just labelled every box.
Ok, I need to motivate to clean. Someone is stopping by to pick up my old Nat'l Geos at some point.

In completely shallow news, have we discussed Jon Stewart's new facial hair?
I am a beard lover, but I think it takes away from his awesome expressions.

OK, I have packed some more, and I have inventoried. No spreadsheet, just a list with a general idea of what's in each box. 30 boxes. Ten of them are entirely books, and a few more are books mixed in with other stuff. Seven are kitchen stuff, and there will be at least two or three more of that. I have also used several rolls of bubble wrap, a bunch of towels, quite a few layers of cardboard, and an entire roll of tape to pack up the glass doors of my bookcase.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I should have had more detail on the spreadsheet about what was in each box. I have been lost on where to find some things.
I did find the nail polish though. Currently vexing me are the dry-erase pens. NO IDEA where they got packed.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

He looks like the devil. A funny angry little devil-man.
You spreadsheet-making people astound me. I'd like to be that organized, but I can't imagine it happening.

I just unpack very quickly so I don't need the spreadsheet.
