Sep. 4th, 2007 01:21 pmSorting though cupboards and digging things out.
Hidden stash of food time...
Hmph. Schoc chocolate doesn't age well, or at least the peppermint definitely whimps out after a while. But since the best before date was Feb 07... Given it was bought when I was last(? or the time before that) in Wellington (2006??). Flavour in the lime chilli lasts longer though its best before date is March 07. Neither has great choc anymore. Oh well. If I leave it by the computer, it will get eaten.
Sifting through clothing as well. To a certain extent, if it didn't get worn since the last move (and isn't good formal/party clothing I haven't had an excuse to wear), it will probably get chucked. This is moderated by temperature considerations as winter here really wasn't up to Canberran (or Chch) standards. There are a bunch of light weight sun dresses which may have less excuses for wear in Wellington, but that Z would be sorry to see go...
Not much clothing of use for job interviews - a generalwhiffair of absentminded academic/student op-shoppedness has arisen in my general clothing tastes (surprise surprise). May need to fix that in Wellington :(
Yesterday turned out a little more productive than expected as managed to file the two drawers of dread financial paperwork and get the tax returns done and filed. Yay to online systems and fingers crossed to money back in the next few weeks when it would be rather useful. Not certain if Z owes me chocolate or a favour for doing his one...
Is it bad that the clothes sorting (what gets shipped and what travels with us) has consisted of setting apart what will be needed for NAAMA, then the mundane clothes for a week or two... We will probably have 3 tramping packs between us and the usual carry on baggage (which will include the laptop). This ups the awkwardness factor and may take us in overweight, but certain things you just want with you.
Time for lunch, bank, groceries and guess what, more packing ... (until dance practice).
