...And while I've been pretty frantic this weekend because it seems so much of what still needs to be done, needs to be done at the last minute, I think I'm going to be ready. I have five boxes of stuff that are going to get shipped ahead tomorrow, and possibly one or two more on Tuesday. I probably wouldn't need to ship anything, if not for having two large monitors (a 21" and a 20") and a significant pile of computers to bring with me. It may take some trial-and-error to find how best to fit everything in, but I think it'll all go. I'm doing pretty well on getting the perishable foods used up, except for the frozen stuff -- there's still a whole bunch of frozen chicken in the freezer.
The plan is all the furniture and the housewares are to be gone by noon, then I finish loading, ship a last couple of boxes ahead if necessary, grab a free burrito for lunch from the new burrito place over at Mathilda and the bignum, and then hit the road.
Last time I did this solo cross-country stuff, I was 20 years younger and had a lot less stuff to move. That one went fairly smoothly. This time I'll be going the opposite direction, but ironically, going most of the way on I-80 again just like the first time.
This is far from the first time I've moved. Hell, it's far from the first time I've moved on my own. Why do I feel so jittery?
