So I haven't posted in a very long, long time, and I am sorry for those who frequent in hope for an update. But here is an update for you.
So we had to move last October but this time it is from a 3 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom townhome (1325 sq.ft.) to a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom (850 sq. ft.) apartment. Now this is a huge down grade for us, however it was a necessary move as they were re-modeling the old town home. (On a side note we found out later that it has asbestos in it)
Normally we don't have an issue with moving but this time we had some issue as we don't have a lot of money to move with but yet we got some friends to help and we got it done within 2-weeks or so.
The issue we have with the current apartment is that we just don't have the room for everything. Especially we had to clear out a storage unit. We moved in with boxes and found out that we have more stuff than we thought. We had about 82 boxes of stuff that we had in storage just sitting there.
This is the picture of our front door where we had the bulk of the boxes. We don't use our front door as our roomate has some mobility issues and can't go up the stairs. Mind you this shot is just reciently.
Again another picture of the door. I mean this is nothing compared to this...
Yeah this is our bedroom. We had to put most of the boxes in the bedroom for the holidays. Here is another shot to show you the extreme of the boxes.
Now you must be curious what is most of these boxes. Well to show you.. yes I have more pictures.
You guessed it MAIL. I HATE MAIL. Mail and paperwork, it has been an issue, I just don't have a system yet for mail. Although it doesn't help that we don't have a shredder yet. I finally have decided that I need to get organized. But here is our start.
So this is our start to organization. Here is hoping that we will get done with this before summer. We are down to 33 in the living room and 32 in the bedroom. So 65 boxes total. We can do it.
We also want to get most of the mail sorted before May as our community is having a Shred-a- thon. Woo.

OMG I cant believe I missed this. That is a crap load of boxes...mail? Are you talking bills and taxes or junk? Holy cow woman that is a lot of sorting. And here I sit thinking I have a crap load to do in the office, um not so much. I do wish you the best of luck with all that.
Yeah it is a lot of boxes but hey we got through at least 18 boxes. and the mail is mostly bills and junk and the ones in front of the door is well Junk and same with the bedroom. Just stuff from his previous marriages and just stuff th at collected dust.. I think we have at least 5 boxes, a lamp and a bread macheine just for donation. UGH and we can at least see the door.
