Packeta packeta packeta

Things in other things. Small boxes in medium boxes. Loose clothes in suitcases. Fabric in bins. Booze in medium boxes. Books everywhere. Ohmigosh we need more boxes.

We're moving this week, hurray!

Reminder to anyone who can help on Sunday -- meet us at our old house at noon or anytime thereafter. Once we get some cars loaded we'll start running them over to the new house. People whose skills run to packing or unpacking, or wielding power tools to assemble bookcases (was that subtle, [livejournal.com profile] keshwyn?), also invited. Pizza or Chinese food will follow in late afternoon or suppertime. Drop us a note here or an email, so we have some guesses how many are coming.
(Edit to add: We're getting a Ford rental van, so most things will go over in it instead of personal cars.)

New house, big house, burble!

*laugh* OK, got the hint. Should I bring my own power tools? What about socket wrenches?

I was just wondering that. Will pack drill and wrenches...

We will have some -- I picked up a fancy new cordless drill, and a socket wrench set, for building the wine rack the other day. That said, it might not be a bad idea to have spares out in the car, if that's convenient...

Unless I'm misremembering my schedule, I'm free part of the afternoon, but need to be in Allston by 4 p.m. See you 'round noon.

You can expect me.

I'll be pretty honest. I'm going to be in no shape to move heavy things and possibly not even light things. Apart from running my first event and various body conditions (some TMI, some plain exhaustion), I plan to enjoy myself to the fullest of my abilities at the post-revel the night before. And I don't move heavy stuff that well to begin with.

However, if I make it, I'm definitely willing to assemble furniture and pack/unpack. I will do my best to be there but I'd rather not make a firm promise, just in case. Justin has helped me move enough times that I will try to make it.

You need a link :)
