Well, if you’ve noticed my lack of posts lately, you’ve probably wondered if I fell into a pit somewhere. Actually, that’s exactly what happened. I fell into the same pit that so many of my clients do. Yep, you guessed it… I moved.
I’ve spend the past week or so in moving hell, and it’s refreshed my memory of the pains that so many of you have felt recently, or may be about to feel. With that in mind, I think I’ll post a few pointers:
- Be organized – pack each room carefully marking boxes with specifics of what’s in them, and where they belong in the new home.
- Keep your friends close – buy the beer, pizza, or whatever you have to, to motivate your friends to help you.
- Be efficient – it’s really easy to get distracted as your loading or unloading, and turn a 2-hour job into a 6-hour job. Stay focused.
I have a lot more, but those are the basics to keep in mind, and let me say a BIG HUGE THANK YOU to all my friends and family who put their weekend on hold to help us get things taken care of. We’re not settled yet, but we’re far closer than we ever could have been on our own.
Now, just so you all know, I won’t be moving again for many, many, many years! 🙂
