Almost packed
Jun 2, 2004Moving day is tomorrow and we’re almost packed. I lost a couple of hours onnthe couch- it’s too long to fit out the door and into the elevator so I had tonremove the arms. It’s something of a process. It’s real furniture andnyou have to carefully undo tacking strips beneath the trim to reach the frame, but it took long mostly because I had left both sets of tools over at the newnapartment. I ended up borrowing from the Superintendent. A little embarrassing.nnSo much packing. nSomehow there’s always more in an apartment than anyone can estimate nbut we thought we had enough of materials. Not quite.nI had to scavenge additional boxes from some people who recently moved ninto the building. They even had a tall wardrobe box. nLater, I had to pull newspapers from the building recycling bin.nEven now, close to midnight, there are still some things left out.nWe’re getting up early tomorrow to finish and I’ll return on Friday and Saturdaynto get whatever is left.
