I just broke my packing tape dispenser.
Fortunately it is just a plastic guard so I can still use it, I just need to be careful not to gouge the tape with the metal cutter.
I did a lot of reading about eggs for cooking sous vide, and they are actually very complicated. There is a lot of variabiity between different eggs, and the yolk and white cook at very different temperatures. Even if you repeat the exact same time and temperatures you are likely to get different results for different batches of eggs.
I know pizza on the floor is tradtional moving day fare, but as I already have the dining table up there I am going to break with tradition. The current plan is tacos.
I shall exchange for coffee, as per my taste preferences. I have already followed this step 4 times today.
It would be handy if I could just pack them up. Pet wrangling is going to be one of the most complicated parts of the move. Miss Meow will be sedated and confined to a small pen at each end while the move happens, and my sister is going to be nanny for the day to Mr Woof - hopefully the weather will be ok and she can exhaust him with a couple of long walks.
I don't think I'm up to a proper inventory for everything, but I printed out some stickers to label which room everything belongs to. I'm writing a quick note on that of the most important bits I'm likely to want to look for first.
I did have a plan to use the orange fragile tape on all the last boxes I pack, as they will be the ones I want to unpack first, but I accidentally packed the tape with the rest of the stationey supplies, so I might have to do some "open first" labels instead.
I've decided I need a detailed and comprehensive moving plan to make sure everything goes smoothly for my relocation. After a lot of research and considerable thought, here is what I have come up with:
Step 1: Put everything in boxes
Step 2: Move boxes to new house
Step 3: Unpack all the boxes
I think I've got this.
Food in a box, please. This week everything is going to be boxes.
Welcome back YarraByte! I hope you had a nice long weekend.
I think trying to find any single draughts in my place would be futile, there are so many of them. Plus they mingle with the radiating cold coming through the walls and windows.
I'm looking forward to the new place being both double glazed and drought proof - everything is very well sealed and weather stripped there. I'm hoping as well as the temperature benefits it will mean less dust inside.
I am exhausted and I'm still so far behind where I want to be packing wise. All this stuff seems neverending, and everything seems to triple in size once I try to put it into a box. At least I should be building some good muscle with all this lifting.
Miss Meow likes the stacked boxed decor theme, she's been having a great time exploring everything.
