I'm fighting the house-cleaning boogies. I cleaned out the pantry yesterday -- found my "junk" baskets from when we moved from Dodge City. They were just stuffed in the back of the cabinet as if they were full of priceless treasure or something. Had a couple of "Ah, THAT's where that was” moments… but mostly it was "What the hell was I keeping this for?"
Found in the rubble:
A to-do list for moving. Info about our temporary rental house after the move. Numerous keys. My old glasses. A key chain my aunt gave me as a gift before we moved. LOTS of screws and nails and tacks. Probably $5 in change. A baby pacifier (not mine, we never used pacifiers). Pens. Pencils. Apple-shaped post-it notepads. Cinnamon Listerine Oral Care Strips.
Made me feel oddly sentimental… and relieved… and... I don't know what... all at the same time.

Moving does get overwhelming!
(This is coming from a woman who hates moving...yet married a military guy. *sigh*)
Good luck!
