All my books are packed. As you can see to the left, my movies and TV shows are not. What will I watch while I pack? :)
I bought a piece of glass on the web. It was shipped in a box padded with cut cardboard boxes. The glass arrived intact and the seller made good use of their old boxes.

So we spent the day packing the house up and putting half of it in storage in the hope that we will soon be getting an exchange date to move. With Thing 4 due in 4 weeks we need to get organised! Wonder which will happen first!
Moving from one house to another is one of the most boring activities that you could find yourself in. The reason is that there is a lot of packing that has to be done and knowing the right place to place an object is quite confusing especially acquiring cheap moving boxes. More often, we tend to ask our friends to assist us in packing and relocating. However, we tend to forget that they hate moving just the same way we do. But there is a polite way of requesting for the favor from them without being too hard on them. Below is a quick guide regarding the topic under discussion.
Tell Your Friends Early enough
Do not just wake up and pressure your friends to help you move the following day. It is always essential to issue close to a more than a week’s notice so that those that you depend on may plan their #schedule as well.
Always as for a weekend help
Most of the people may be busy during the weekdays. Therefore, it is advisable that when you need a favor from your allies, always try to put it during the weekend since probably this is the time that they will be free and not engaged.
You have to accept that it’s a huge favor
No one likes to pack their stuff and move let alone assisting someone else in #relocating. Therefore, the fact that your buddies are helping you in moving means a lot. Only a friend indeed will give a helping hand in such a moment. Therefore, you have to let them know that you are genuinely grateful for their help.
Never Get it personal if you are not assisted
Some comrades will gladly help you in moving while others will give you excuses for why they cannot do that. In one way or the other, we have also provided our pals explanations for not being willing to do something. Again, it gives you a chance to know your comrades better. Therefore, if it backfires, move to the next friend and don’t hold grudges.
Do not be bossy
When being given the favor, avoid bossing the comrades assisting you to pack and move around. They might get annoyed and leave you to carry your cross.
Avoid giving people too much pressure
Some people have a tight schedule, and yet they are your friends. They may have a job to do, a family to take care of or other engaging work as well. Therefore, if you are dealing with such friends, always understand them and avoid giving them too much pressure.
Do plan to return a favor
When you have been assisted, always be the first person to promise to support those that have sacrificed their time to be there for you. It takes a true friend to be there when you need them the most. Therefore, you to assure them that whenever they need your help, you will be ready to assist.
Do not expect perfection from them
Since your friends are not professional movers, expect them not to work as if they are experts in #moving. They may take too long or even lag behind but you must be grateful and appreciate all the help from them since its never easy.

Just finished packing the SUV!.
Who knew leet hax took up so much space? They wouldn't all fit in my Ferrari so I had to load them up in this Hyundai I borrowed from a fan.
Little known fact: ICANN hands out a Ferrari to everyone who becomes internet famous - that's what they do with all that cash!

With the back row of seats removed we have enough room in the back of the car for all the boxed up camping gear and supplies, and we can still carry five people. This has to be the most practical vehicle around.
We have sorted all the camping gear into boxes, and Ginger has a packing list on each box, so the only stuff we forget is the things in everyday use. In this picture you'll notice the absence of pillows...
Taking the kids along just requires one more box (kids tent) plus their sleeping bags and personal stuff. As Alek came along with us the kids' tent and his stuff is included in the above load.
There's more about our camping stuff on Breakfast in America.

“There is always a sadness about packing. I guess you wonder if where you're going is as good as where you've been.”
― Richard Proenneke, One Man's Wilderness: An Alaskan Odyssey
Short video I made while packing up my dorm room. Very sad.

The fact that the light changes really bothers me... I apologize for that.
The view of the passenger side of the back seat of the Prius as it was packed for Calstar. Visible is the lawnchair for camping comfort, the milk crate holding the extension cords, tent stakes, sledgehammer, and prybar. The rest of the bags hold clothing and other supplies.

My first attempt at Mission24 for the block theme didn't work out because I didn't read the rules carefully enough (outside the allowed time frame). Oops! A week or two ago I put together some new shelves in my room. I've been meaning to take the box and packing materials out to the dumpster but haven't gotten around to it yet so they have been residing in my hallway. Then, it struck me...why not use the Styrofoam blocks for this weeks submission?
