So I went to visit my storage unit. I needed to find things like my running gear, PJ's, and more shoes. I wandered through many boxes looking for an assortment of items that I had been looking for.
I found things I didn't even know that I wanted to have back. And so it led me to pause and think about all of my stuff. I couldn't tell you the contents of most of my boxes off hand. (I know you wouldn't be shocked to know that most boxes are numbered, and there is a list with a short description of the contents of each. I could eventually tell you the contents.) But I remembered that I like most of my stuff. And it gave me an idea: I could one day be reunited with it, and actually be able to unpack it.
This has motivated me to move beyond my "readjustment" phase into the "move on" phase.

ya know, alot of my crap goes into the trash and / or goodwill each time i come back from a long trip - time to lighten up the load girlie! (:
I have boxes and boxes and boxes of crap here... and i'd say 70% = books. I'd love to ship 'em over to the U.S.,,, but that would cost a prety penny :(
Lynne - How much is sea mail? It takes months, but it was fairly cheap for me to ship stuff from Bali...
And I do think that I'll be cleaning house, once I get my stuff back with me. Seems easy enough to do when I've got the boxes and such right there...
