Do I have a point?

[orthoclase]

If you think about it, moving is a pointless exercise. You spend weeks putting all your stuff in boxes, so that you can't get to it if you need it (which always happens the day after you boxed it up). All of that so that you can put it in a truck, get to a new place, then begin taking it out of the boxes again. And no matter how well you labeled

I've moved around so much in my time that even now, most of my belongings are still in boxes, & I've lived in this house for almost three years. Before that, I was in university accomodation that preferred residents to move out during the Christmas holidays (the big annual school break in Australia) to keep rooms available for summer school students, & before that I was in a house (on a sheep property) that I had to vacate once a year so that it could be used as a dining hall for the shearers.

You are a better person than me. I would have gone stark raving mad (if I'm not already). The hardest part about this particular move is packing up three kids. The last time I moved, I only had one. Of course, then there is the annoyance of can I pack this yet, or will I need that, etc.

I just can't wait to get the whole thing over with and get settled back down.
