Ok, not really packing so much as cleaning to pack. :)

I have cleaned out the right hand side of my desk. Got rid of a whole bunch of crap and organized the rest better. I had all the stuff that Josh has colored, glued, taped, cut out, etc, at preschool this year in one folder and it had spilled over into a 2nd one (meaning I kept adding stuff and it outgrew 1 folder. :) ). So now I have all that stuff in a box, ready to take over and stick in a closet. I have all the booklets for all the household items (vcr's, tv's, radio's, toys, etc) in a folder, organized by type (electronics, kitchen appliances, toys, misc.). The folders in my drawer are hanging file folders. Well, that booklets folder had gotten incredibly thick & heavy. So I got a plastic file folder that has sections and closes and put them in one of those.

I have a folder with my stuff in it (cards from Scott, etc), medical folder, automobile folder, budget, rent, utilities, income tax, insurance, and a few more that are empty.

I am just impressed with myself! :D lol

So now I am taking the "Food" folder and going to copy all the recipes that I have printed out from like foodtv.com or whatever and put them on index cards and put the cards in a recipe box I have. w00t! Organize Jenny! :D

Trust me, you'll start off with good intentions of keeping everything organized, but after a box or two, you'll just start cramming stuff into boxes and labelling them, "More Crap." :P

Congrats, and happy moving day! :D

What is this organize process you speak of? :confused:

Whenever I move its easy...

1) Open Box
2) Put Crap in Box
3) Is Box full? ("Y" go to 4, "N" go to 2)
4) Close and Seal Box
5) Go to 1

There's an error in your logic. Need to get new box or you'll have a box overflow :P
