OT-Moving

[Jason_W]

I'm down to my last 3 weeks as a Vermont resident. I've never lived anywhere else since I was 2, so I'm pretty psyched for something new. I absolutely detest the process of packing and the inevitable trash removal chores that accompany it, though.

Good luck!

Best of luck, moving is hard. My brother moved 16 times in 18 years. If a box with a moving sticker from the last move had not had the tape cut, he would throw that box out without even looking. His philosophy was if I lived with out it for a year, I really don't need it!

I lived 11 different places during 13 years, but it was while I was in college, and didn't have much stuff to move, or much time to become 'accustomed' to anyplace for long. Still, it got to where I had boxes of stuff I just didn't bother to unpack. I found one box in 1988 I'd not opened since 1977...!

Hope you're going to a decent place, freedom-wise; hard to beat Vermont's gun laws...!

I've told my wife that if we ever hit the lottery and she wants a new house then all she can take with her is what she can fit in her car (NOT her car AND my truck, etc). The rest will be torched...

Good luck with the move. Where are you moving to? I haven't moved in 20 years and don't plan on moving for another 20 but you know how plans go.

There's actually been a change of plans. Since neither of us have jobs yet, we're going to be staying with my wife's parent's in Brunswick for a short while we're getting on our feet. I have active applications out up I-95 from Augusta to Bangor, and up Rt1 from Freeport to Machias. I'm hoping I get a bite on at least one of them.

I'm not really looking in the Portland area because of the cost of housing.

Good luck and hope you land a job soon. Living with the in laws can be trying.

I get along great with them. My father in law and I do a lot of fishing together. He's actually my good luck charm. I only catch decent fish with him around.

Still, it's a small house and not where my wife and I want to be for very long.

Yer still an hour away, Jason.

I live near Augusta.

What line of work are you in?
If I hear of anything I can PM ya.

Best of luck on the move. We have averaged a move every 2.5 years over the last 14 years. Some times it sucks some times not.

[TedH]

Good luck!

I sooo hate moving. We moved four times in about 10 years. Last time was about two years ago. I plan on staying here a looooong time.

I'm in any line of work I need to be

I have a degree in English (oops) with experience in general office work and education. I got myself through college working labor jobs, though.

It's not the moving I hate. I can move and stack boxes all day with no problem. What I can't stand is the organizing and packing part.

All the same, I'm looking forward to a fresh start.

I always like exploring new areas. Good luck to you!

Good Luck Jason! Hope everything works out great for ya!
