I've decided it's time to finish moving in.
So, today I put a lot of stuff away into IKEA cardboard boxes, and started unpacking the last three big boxes that are still sitting in a corner of my kitchen (couldn't unpack them completely, though, as I still lack the furniture to put all that stuff away). And then I went to the basement and reorganised my storage compartment there, putting the million 70 empty, folded-up boxes into the farthest corner so as to unearth my bike and the shelves and another seven boxes I still haven't unpacked, all of which were mostly buried under all the empty boxes.
Will try to get the bike fixed tomorrow. Also, I'll start looking through the contents of those seven boxes, which are mostly filled with the remains of my old room at my parents', i.e., kids' books, some old toys, boxes full of twenty-plus year old cards and letters and notes, etc. Hopefully I'll be able to discard a lot of that stuff. Not all, though - silly as it is, I find it difficult to get rid of things I wrote or drew as a kid.
Had a quick look at the contents of one of the boxes today. Lots of notes about death and the meaning, or lack thereof, of life. - I don't think I've changed much, in some respects. :D
I'm really glad I actually have a dry and clean basement here. It was impossible to store anything not made entirely of plastic or some other waterproof material in the basement of the house where I lived before... everything would get moldy in no time.

Same here (I love seeing drawings I did when I was a little one). But it goes to silly degrees - in that I've still got all my high school books. Which is kind of ridiculous when you think about it. Hmm. I might have to bung all those in the recycling next time I see them (won't get rid of what I've got of my junior school books though).

I plan on unpacking sometime this year. Probably.
You're really rushing this. ;)
