Sweet zombie Jesus, how did I get so much stuffMy mom's driving up tonight to pack some of the larger less-used furniture items into the van. This will a) make sure that the remaining stuff will fit into the combination of Grandpa's truck + my car and b) make sure that the piano isn't bouncing around in the back of Grandpa's truck for four-and-a- ( Read more... )

Disney World!

Make sure you go on Star Tours. They are closing it soon to redesign the whole ride, so it will be your last chance to experience the original.

The funny thing is that Star Tours is at a different Disney park--we usually go to Magic Kingdom. But we might be able to manage a side trip to MGM where Star Tours is. (I'm going to try, at least.)

Star Tours isn't in the Magic Kingdom? Weird.

I hope you do make it to MGM. Looking forward to hearing what you think of the ride ;)

Heh, sounds like when I packed up. Where did I get so many books and fabric?! Boxes and boxes and boxes of them; big boxes too. So many I had to space them out with other stuff or the boxes would be so heavy I couldn't move them. And spices; my spice cupboard was quite varied. We will not speak of the amount of tea.

YOU CAN DO IT! AND YAY DISNEYWORLD!

Guys, I have. A lot. Of books. This should not surprise anyone, least of all me, but the sheer volume (heh) is ridiculous. I filled three boxes and it...didn't really make much of a dent.

Haha, welcome to my world! I think when I moved back home from Ottawa two and a half years ago, I had 36 boxes of books in the van. Add in the probably around 10 boxes of books I've acquired while living at home both times, plus the two suitcases of books I shipped home after 14 months overseas.... I'll definitely have somewhere in the realm of 50 (!!) boxes of books when I move back to Ottawa in two weeks.

Two weeks. Eeep. Have I started packing yet? No. Am I even on the same continent as my stuff? No. When will I be back on the same continent as my stuff? Four days before I move. Go me!

There are never ever too many books *_*
Even if one has to leave pathways between them to reach their bed...
