Whew...packing is slow work

[TBM]

At least when I am the one doing it.lol

Today I sorted our dvd collection, and cataloged as I packed.  I still have one box to finish tonight, but I got all of the lists from the boxes that I packed entered on the computer.  I also have a list of movies that I know we have but I couldn't find them today.   I am sure they are somewhere obvious, (aside from the tv stand and the dvd shelves in the closet), but it is driving me crazy.  

I got rid of duplicates, and movies that I didn't want and am pretty sure DH forgot about.  I think him forgetting what we have is the reason for the duplicates.lol

We have a lot of movies that I really enjoy watching......I kept having to fight the urge to put a movie in. ;p

Wow. I just had boxes labeled DVDs, CDs, books, accessories from office...stuff like that. Except the kitchen boxes, they were really specific.

I was going to do that, but I figured that everything was too disorganized so it seemed like a good time to fix that.  I have been wanting to have a master list for quite awhile, but hadn't gotten around to it.  I thought it would help avoid the the duplicates and help us create a wish list so that we aren't standing at the store saying "do we have this?'.

My house is so disorganized right now, and I really don't want to move it in this state and have to deal with it there.  We have lived in this house for almost 20 years, and our kids left a lot their stuff here, and I don't want it any more.  We aren't going to have a garage at the new house, and we have gotten used to storing way too much stuff, so I am on a purging mission.  Apparently an organizing mission too.  I am taking the opportunity to take inventory of some other stuff too, but I am not going to do it that detailed for everything.

I know it's slow going, but that level of organization is so satisfying.
