Colin's Big Purge


Boxes Packed:  3 today, 15 total (4 others half-packed)
Sharpies Used Up:  0
Rolls of Packing Tape: 1

While Andrea was at class today, I spent the day doing some light packing and starting to clean out the storage room.  I was amazed by the amount of stuff that I've been keeping that I haven't looked at in 15-20 years!  I found old report cards, old school projects, and a whole bunch of stuff that I didn't even know I had kept.  Some of it was worth keeping, but it felt good to be able to consolidate 4-5 boxes down to 2.  It's amazing how much stuff that was just stored in boxes for years that I'd brought with us when we moved out to BC, especially since Andrea and I did a huge purge before we moved out.  

There's still a lot to do and little time to do it in, but I know that I'm getting more and more excited about the move back!

Don't worry Sheri, Brad, and Paula - there is LOTS of bubble wrap for the girls to pop!

Packing Commences....

Boxes Packed:  12
Sharpies Used Up:  0
Rolls of Packing Tape: 0

Colin has started to bring boxes home and the dining room & office are starting to fill up.  In a fit of cleaning, I have started to pack up some of the books and Sequel-related items.

Other than procrastinating from course work, the big book sort is going well.  We will also be getting rid of a bunch of our DVDs - stay tuned for the list if you want any of them!  :)
