About 2pm we made our way to the storage unit. It's only 10 x 12 so there was concern it wouldn't fit all the items. Even checked to see if there was another storage unit available but alas there was not. Logistics and strategy played a big part into stacking my household into the tiny space. Sam was a big help. At one point we needed a brace for the bed frame. Sam thought he had wood in his truck. Next thing we hear is a saw and drill going. Yep, Sam crafted on site the perfect brace for the frame. The movers were so impressed by Sam they offered him a job for weekends.
It was a tight squeeze but everything fit in the storage unit. Yay! There are a couple of items at the house that were missed but I think we may be able to cram them in to a nook or cranny left in the unit.
Looking pretty sparse at the house. The bad news is the closing has been delayed due to a screw up by the title company. Ended up moving to a different title company on a rush basis so hopefully the closing will still occur this week.
Spent last night on the chaise portion of my couch which I will sell or leave behind. Was as comfortable as it could be but still did not fall asleep until after 1am simply due to my surroundings. Empty living room, no curtains, and a fidgety dog who missed the bed.
Now to do a walk through the house akin to leaving a hotel room. Am I leaving anything behind? Is something special hidden in a cupboard where it will be forgotten and missed? I will always have my memories so pretty sure anything tangible left behind will be replaceable.
Here's to starting a new journey once the closing commences!
