Expert packer on the job again

When I was a kid we moved around a lot.  Like every 3.5yrs we're packin' up the house & moving.  Not necessarily very far, but far enough to be in a new school district.  I've lived in almost every little podunk town within 50mi radius of Dallas, and there's a bunch of 'em.  One would think that as I grew older I'd grow out of that pattern.  But alas, NOT.  If I'm in a place for more than a coupla years I start gettin' antsy.  Pretty soon I'm gonna pack up & jump.

But the last few years I've had this need to just stay put.  Kinda outa character for me, but there it is.  So this time, this move, is really hard because - for once in my life - I'm not just packing everything & off to somewhere else.  This time I'm letting go.

So many boxes of stuff that hasn't been touched or even looked at in years... no room for it.  Gotta go.  And that box of paperwork that's been hidden in the back of the closet?  Shredded!  (Whew that was a chore & a wonderful release too!)  Furniture sold. Books packed. Post Office notified. U-haul reserved.

If I'm not around for a while, don't panic.  I'm just on the move again.  I'll be back soon enough...
