How have I still not finished packing?! Although at least the remainder is all sorts of bitsy things in various containers. Ran outta packing tape, too...

Gonna have a hard stop for the night. Though I've had to jump out of bed after realising i forgot to drain and disconnect the washing machine. Hopefully it'll be dry enough by 10am! Goodnight everyone.

I really feel for you and can empathise. Why does packing always take longer than anticipated? I hope you get a good night's sleep and that everything goes well :)

Don’t be too proud to just shove nonbreakable stuff in garbage bags. You’ll unpack it fast anyway

I dunno, my partner is still asking me when I'm going to unpack that last box and it has been 2 years. At this point I like to think of it as a mystery box and a running joke.

I don't envy you kitten.. when I was younger I moved around a lot and I actually enjoyed it, it was like an adventure. As I got older I started to hate it, all the work! Many hugs.
