Packing!

Moving day is getting closer and closer; at the end of November we will be relocating to a lovely house in Puerto Marino, about five minutes from where I work. Due to limited time, With us both working, I have started packing boxes now, each day until will move. 

I am surprised at just how much stuff I brought with me to Spain. Most of my belongings were sold before I left Britain, but we were still left with a van load of memories to bring with us. When you move from one country to another you have to be ruthless and offload items, that you would not otherwise consider disposing of. I was left with the bare minimum, to start a new life in Spain. Luckily and unusually for me, I haven't added to baggage, in fact the opposite is true; yes I have changed that much. I used to be a hoarder of everything and anything, today I live as frugally as possible.

Trying to pack boxes with Mollie and Wildling around is a nightmare, they are in to absolutely everything, but I am at least making progress. The house we are moving to, is about twice the size of the one we are currently living in, so there is no need to worry about lack of space; in fact we have more room than we really need, but it will make for a more comfortable experience, which is what living in Spain is all about.

I suppose I better get back to it; I have a lot to do today, before I start work this evening, on top of cooking a bulk load of lentil soup for the freezer. The one thing I hate in life, is the one thing I have done the most of, moving house. One day I will be able to settle long enough, without the spectre of having to move for one reason or another. Settling down has never been my strong point, lets hope this time it is!
