Gap year eve

Phew. I truly thought I was a minimalist. But sadly, it's only a figment of my imagination. I literally worked non stop until 8pm sorting, moving and shifting.

I never want to reincarnate as a mover, because I am crap at it, plus it's exhausting!


My month of doing one thing a day gave me a false sense of security. I should have started two months ago at that rate, but two months ago I didn't know that I was going to be doing this thing of Around the World in SA tour.




But apart from some bits and pieces, I have tomorrow to drive away the stuff to storage and clean up the place. The upside was that the weather was glorious and my laundry dried within three hours.


I hadn't thought about food for my last meal, and I didn't even get a chance to call for delivery. I ended up eating cheese and crackers, which sounds exotic, except I had packed my knives, so I was chomping on the block like a rodent, lol.


I had to write this blogpost early tonight because I am not sure if I will be awake in half an hour...


But I am glad it's done ( both the packing and the blog)!
