Well, I've sorted through all my belongings and have reduced the amount of stuff I'm transporting to Tasmania to a much reduced wardrobe, books, and a few art pieces.
Christine, your preparations for moving to Tasmania have convicted me of my materialism and literary idolatry. I fully believe that if faced with the possibility of moving halfway around the world, I would sell every useful thing I owned so that my precious (and newly laminated, if the climate were tropical) books could all be shipped in safety. I wonder how much it costs to airlift one's library to Zimbabwe...
May we all be as willing as you to sacrifice mere earthly goods. :)
not one to be lumped in with everyone else, i enjoy being different: i laugh when i ought to cry, i run off the sides of mountains, i can't answer the question 'where are you from?', i told my husband i loved him before i met him, and i'm a woman who is doing her part to reverse the negative trends of extreme feminism. i seek to encourage my brothers-in-Christ, and discuss ways in which women can do the same.

You have a LOT of stuff, girl. I mean, a LOT.
If you have a tall-girl clothing sale coming up, I think you should post the info. :)

So, how did you decide to rid yourself of the "excess baggage"? If you're having a sale or anything, let me know and I'll bring some peeps.

heather, i'll let you know how much it costs to "airlift one's library to" Tasmania.
If you have any good artwork that you just can't find a home for, let me know, especially if I know the artist.
i sent you an email. i'm interested in the sale too! seriously.
Swift. When it comes to transporting books, you can never be too prepared... :)
Christine you are doing a top job I'm proud of you. XO
