Life moves on, sometimes unexpectedly. After so many moves to homes in different cities, we learned some lessons I can share.
Unpack essentials immediately ... before forgetting which boxes and where they landed — rechargers, toilet paper, meds, and keys, for example. (My phone camera was handy when packing. Wish I had used it more.)
Remember: storage units seem convenient, sometimes essential, but they tend to be a trap. Determination and hard work are required to break free without a contractor doing the move/disposal. However, intentional storing works. (Like intentional parenting I’ve heard about?)
Simplify. Get some rest ... and a little fast food!
