see the last few moves i did werent bad...when i moved to san diego no big deal, i didnt have anything really except clothes...then i got paid $700 to move my stuff from san diego to chicago, plus the big stuff i made the govt move...then once i got my apartment in the north burbs i bought a bed and that was dlvd for me, and i slowly brought stuff from home to my apartment...then i moved to a studio cause my roommate got out of the navy and moved like 1/2 mile, we did it in his pickup, then when i moved here the govt moved all the big stuff again...but since ive been here i got a microwave cart, a table and chairs, and a couch...and this time i have to do it all with family...seriously i think itll take less than 5 hours, thats start to finish, with travel time included...i dont suspect more than an hour loading since there will be 3 of us and there isnt a whole lot of big stuff, but its such a pain, pack it, move it, unpack it, except most is going into storage, so ill unpack once i get a new place, but then itll be a 10-20 mile move instead of 50, and i dont think ill need a uhaul for that since my moms bf has a pickup, and it will take a few trips for the big stuff, but yeah...
im sure several of you know my pain with recent moves, but im getting everything ready to go to make it easy for my brother and brother in law who will be helping me with the move a week from this coming saturday...i want to have everything pretty much ready to go by next wednesday, which shouldnt be too difficult since i plan on getting some work done around here tomorrow...im sweating because my AC sucks, but ive made pretty good progress thus far...been working in my closet where i still had a bit of stuff boxed up from moving here (books, slus)...getting it all staged in the living room in the corner which will make moving the big stuff (bed/dresser) fairly easy once i do that late next week...no professionals here, but i kept lots of their boxes from when they moved me after my navy stint...that makes life fairly easy
