i am feeling extremely overwhelmed. we started the loooong and painful process of packing today. actually, we started with cleaning out and throwing away first, and this was just the garage. how we acummulated so much is beyond me. i admit i can be a bit of a packrat, but these days, very few things hold any sentimental value! just throw it away--that's my new mantra. at first two and a half weeks sounded like a lot of time to pack. but now, i don't know if it's enough.

did i mention we'll be spending close to $1000 on gas just for this move? *sigh*
