Last two weeks have been very airy. Saw a movie or two, finally got a chance to listen to the Wolf Parade CD, went to a lecture on the Florence scene at the time of Leonardo and Michelangelo, went on a few bike rides, fussed over the move and furniture arrangements.
We started packing though somewhat half-heartedly. I’ve packed up the basement last winter when I decided to get rid of cardboard and put everything in plastic containers. Other than that we just have the books, chachkas (I hope this means what I think it means, I could not find definition in any of the dictionaries), kitchen stuff and clothes. It amazes me how much stuff we have that we don’t need but are not going to get rid of.
