Moving out

This past week we doubled down on packing up our current house in Centerton. Saturday became a “power day” with getting all the furniture moved to the main floor so Peder could figure out exactly how to go about packing the Pod. He is definitely the “Tetris master” when it comes to how to pack a bunch of stuff into a relatively small space! We divided everything into one of three destinations — Pod, Olive Street garage, or RV. Fortunately, the earlier thinning out to get the house ready for sale had already sent many bags and boxes to Goodwill and Laura was able to sell her large desk and bookcase from her office. By Sunday night, we had 95% of the house packed up and stacked into the Pod or moved over to West Olive Street. We brought the RV home and spent our first night of the next several months in our new “home away from home.” We’ll use this final week to load up the RV with the remaining personal and household effects. As we’ve used the RV for nearly a year for weekend excursions or 1-2 week trips, we’ve commented about ways to make how we use certain storage better. Now is the time to get that all figured out!
