What a hot mess the move out is… It’s always hard to predict, but the amount of crap that you can accumulate in 9 years with 3 kids is mind boggling! Marika did an amazing job of boxing (championship level tetris) the entire house, just a bummer she didn’t find my set of keys, which at this point, are probably lying in a lost property bin at the Hills Bus depot, or in a garden at 11 Glenwood Way.



We hired a wopper of a storage area at the local self storage place, which is now the home to most of our crap. Marc (self storage guru) told me most 4 bedroom house will fit into a 6x3m garage, so not sure what happened there, but we ended up almost filling the 9×3.5m garage we hired!
Yay for free trailer hire!


118 boxes later, this is the storage garage… not to mention the 15 or so boxes in the retreat at Karalee.

Big thanks to Dad and Dad for the miserable job of helping us clear out the final 20% of the house. The last 20% is always the worst and seems to take 80% of the time. Also a big thanks to Ray and Glenda for generously going on a holiday up north so that we could live in their house while we continue to renovate the new house! And now its time to get back to Karalee.
