Not moved off my butt for 3 days

[Cookiecrumble22]

I'm moving next week. And I have literally done nothing for 3 days. I feel so drained and don't know where to start. I have packed most of our clothes away. Paperwork etc. And bits and bobs. I done that last week though. I'm practically packing on my own. So I need to kick my butt . But there's apart of me thinking I could pack in a day 🤣

Can you? (Pack in a day)
Can you do a very brief timetable for packing make it quickly or it’s just a way to delay actual packing? Treats at each step. (Adult star chart )

I would start now, when I last moved , I thought I didn’t have much stuff & left it til the last minute, big mistake! Go on you’ll feel better once you start

I'm going to do it over the weekend. Whilst kids are with their dad. I can take all the beds down . Disconnected the dishwasher. And washing machine. Make sure general stuff is packed. Then on Monday kids dad is going to take tvs of the walls. Loosen screws on the front door so I can take it off. On moving day

How is the packing going @Cookiecrumble22?

@Cookiecrumble22 don't fanny about with the appliances, get packing!!

Why are you removing the front door?

Because its narrow. It will give me a couple more inches . To get my sofas out of the door.

How is the packing going *@Cookiecrumble22*?

I took bunk bed apart and helped my son pack his stuff away.

I know the feeling. Don’t worry too much u will manage it somehow. I’ve been up til all hours in the past ramming stuff into boxes and bin bags leaving moves til last minute ! Just shovel it all in as best u can and deal with it on the other side x

Yes I do similar. Could end up with shoes mixed in with clothing or something. I don't really care as long ad it gets to the new place.

I meant to say shoes mixed in with toys

You will get through. When we had packers in they spent 50% of their time doing the kitchen, and our kitchen is tiny. So I wouldn't leave that til last! Good luck with it, get some music on, keep your speed up, use boxes for everything if you can and seal them all so they stack.

I have used laundry bags and plastic storage boxes. Kitchen wise I only need to pack plates and cups.. and sort appliances but I will likely do that the day before.

Why are teenagers/young adults such hard work. Ask them. Is your stuff packed really for moving? Yes mum it's all done. I go check a coupe of hours later and stuff in boxes over flowing no lid or anything. So how's he think that's going in the van 🤔

Teenager: he's done similar with a big pile of washing on the floor.

I don't think its actually as bad as I think . I think I'm just busy in my head so it feels more than it really is.

On a positive note . Took my sofas apart
Going to disconnect appliances/defrost freezer tomorrow.

Don't forget the loft... we needed a skip for that
