A conversation about getting ready to move

2009 August 16

But really just a variation on the old conversation about what should and shouldn’t be kept for longer than one week.

Me:  I guess we’ll have to start packing everything into boxes won’t we?

Edd:  Yeah.

Me:  I think I’ll start with my books.

Edd:  Hmm, and we’ll have to get rid of some things too, like magazines.

Me:  Really?  What magazines do you plan to get rid of?

Edd:  …

Me:  Your surf magazines perhaps?

Edd:  Well, I was thinking about your *cut off mid-sentence*

Me:  Oh really?  Well you get your dirty eyes off my magazines and worry about getting rid of things that BELONG TO YOU.

Edd:  *Laughing guiltily*

Me:  *Laughing but ready to fight for every precious page of all my carefully kept magazines if necessary*

    Oh it’s all about compromise isn’t it?..hmmmm…maybe not. My “suggestions” for getting rid of stuff haven’t got me anywhere

    *Giggle* I feel your pain Huffypeg… but I can’t bring myself to compromise over my books, magazines, and memorabilia, EVER.

    I recognise this conversation!! My husband opens my post and then throws it over his shoulder, I do believe, while his letters he smooths flat and kisses and then places in a safe place like the middle of the kitchen table. Grrr. But what can you do??
