I thought I'd put an update since it's been about a week or so. I have now offically mailed off two boxes of stuff. My queen sheet set from Grandma Jackson, My towel and washcloth set and some clothes along with deodorant and a thermometer (wierd combination for first shipment I know I know). At any rate, for both boxes and insurance and delivery comfirmation it cost me around 37 bucks total. The tubs that will have the majority of my items in them will cost me more, I have no doubt. However, I actually feel relieved instead of anxiuos that I got those first two boxes sent off. My next step is to talk with my roommate about what to bring. I have some things but for some reason not what I initially thought. Apparently some of my things either got lost in transition or my roommates from college brought the major stuff. I know that my pots and pans are being used by my mom because I thought they'd be better off used than in a box, but that just means I'll have to buy new or hope my roomie has some. I do have backing stuff so I wont need that. I found some bowls that if I pack carefully since they are glass I can send and about 6 plastic cups along with some kitchen utencils. If nothing else, it will get us by till we can afford to buy more than just the complete basics if needed.
I am finding it hard to make myself pack up my belongings. I'm not sure why since I am extremely happy to be doing this. I guess I just hate moving. Maybe this will be my last major move? well, a girl can hope :).
