Garth and I make the best team EVER. Seriously, we had this amazing system going and we had almost everything packed up in 2 days flat. We were on a roll, but I say almost everything packed because we still have some kitchen and bathroom supplies to pack. But we still use these items on a regular basis so we can't pack them until the night before. Ahhhhh that is a great big sigh of relief. 9 days left and we are 95% done packing, that is big for us since we are procrastinators. But pour us some wine, pump up the music, and we pack like mad.
I will tell you the NOT fun part of packing, and that is finding stuff from Garth's bachelor days. A zebra print picture frame, and a beer candle are among the things I have tried to dispose. But then Garth throws the "But it's from South Africa" bit and I can't make him get rid of it now!
Last night we battled over these black crock pot looking salt and pepper shakers, and this is how the conversation went down:
Me: "Hey babe can we get rid of these? We never use them."
Garth: "They are from South Africa! These are heritage!"
Me: "So we will never get rid of them?"
Garth: "No! We will pass them on to our kids, and they will pass them on to their kids, and their wives will nag them to get rid of them. It will be tradition!"
