i fucking hate moving

[WindRavenX]

what is up with the stupid packing tape that NEVER stays on the cutting piece and AlWAYS shreads and sticks to the roll and you spend like 30 minutes just to get a strip of tape?

jesus it sucks.

1. I am dying TO move! Can't sell the condo....going on 2 months!

I have my life all mapped out - at my new location - but I can't begin it until I get rid of this darn condo.

2. I know the feeling. We just lowered the price on our home

by a significant amount to try to get some prospective buyers in here. Moving is bad, but not being able to move when you really need to is infinitely worse.

6. I know the feeling, but the actual process of moving BLOWS!

3. It's been 13 and a half months since my family's last move.

and I'm still recovering.

I'm so sorry. Hang in there.

4. I grew up as a GI brat

we moved 13 times before I graduated from high school

5. I feel your pain

We just moved and it was so awful, that I may never do it again. I have vowed to get rid of half of everything I own. I just have too much stuff.

7. Sadly one must purchase good quality tape. And if I may make another

suggestion, it would be smart to inventory every item in every box as you're packing, and number each box as you go along.

I packed 50 boxes on 2 pallets for international shipping and was REALLY glad I made the effort to detail each and every item that I packed. It made the unpacking sooo much easier.

I HATE moving. I HATE packing. I HATE sorting, getting rid of crap and subsequentially realizing how much crap I had to get rid of.

Never. Again. It sure puts a damper on the shopping jones.

Good luck, plan well, be patient and be organized.

8. I'm right there with you.

Every time I pack something the kids unpack it :crazy:
