Packing up the dreams God plants

In the 4 years and 2 months the Captain and I have been married we have lived in 7 homes, in 5 states, on 2 land masses. I have learned to always keep the boxes. That towels, socks, and sheets are the best packing materials. That things break but we can always buy new ones or better, yet, you realize you didn't really need it in the first place. I have learned to weed through my memories. To compact my 'must keep foreva!' boxes.

In the latest moving adventure, from the Land of Port to the where it all started before Vegas, we had loads of toilet paper. Naturally since we purchase everything possible in mass quantity from Costco, we had about 50 rolls left. All of these rolls, along with my 50+ pairs of shoes I, after hours of haggling, decided I could live without for 2 months, were all loaded, scrunched, pushed, and stuffed into the washer and dryer. Nice area to also point out that in my moves I have also learned to never leave a space empty. 

As a result of this cleaver packing, upon unloading all the rolls of TP were no longer in well...umm....rolls.  

These little bear friends of ours wouldn't know what happened to them!

Some ended up this shape: 

Others had the inside cardboard looking more of this shape.

Quick Quiz:

Circle all the shapes our TP rolls ended up looking like after 2 months of habitation in our W/D with shoes and handbags!! 

Answer:

All of them! Wow- you are smarter than a Fifth Grader! 

It was funny and made me laugh. Another one of those unique things related to this moving experience. 

So after unpacking, they all got stacked in the supply closet and eventually, over the past 6 months they have been used as offerings to the porcelain gods. Which brings us to the highlight of my Wednesday: The purchase of new toilet paper! Oh please do not be jealous of this exciting life I lead. 

It's thrilling. A cheap pleasure. Toilet paper purchased in the great state of Tennessee which will roll as a roll should on our TP holders. Y'all should come and visit. 

Cheers!
