[quote:fc30d0b798]We have survived the move! We are 100% out of our rented townhouse, and are in our new (to us) house. WHEW!! We love it here. There is a ton of unpacking, organizing, picture hanging, and rearranging to do, plus from my husband, the occasional "What box are my socks in? Can't we just buy a thing of laundry soap until we find the box it's packed in?" Uh, no. I labeled (in detail) every single box. If he just put the boxes into the corresponding rooms, when he moved them, he would not be wearing his last pair of clean socks today! [/quote:fc30d0b798]

MEN!!! DH did the same thing when we moved here. I said, "let's put the boxes nicely stacked in the room they go in up against the wall so that when we unpack we just put the stuff on the shelf or in the drawer. And let's put the furniture how we want it so we don't have to move it later."

Did it happen????? NOPE! Everything was every which way in the living room. We didn't have a couch for 2 days because we couldn't get to it and it was lying on it's SIDE!!! I was so irritated. The deal was he do most of the packing and I do most of the unpacking. Well the unpacking took 6 months because he didn't put stuff in the house the way I had planned and I couldn't unpack it right. And we get to do it all over again in a couple months. Oh Joy! :?

Psssst....if you don't mind my asking, where in Denver did you move??? (you can PM me)
