“moved so many times between 2001 and 2004, it was bizarre.”
Dona, 2005-06 for us. Co-op to rental to sublet to part of our house with offsite storage then further move within house and redelivery of storage items, all within about 18 months, extensive reno and a lawsuit pending.
LECH – here’s my moving advice
call movers and shakers now and speak to your saleperson – ask the team to bring you extra boxes and tape etc – also mention that your wife has come down with pneumonia and that there is a chance you will need help packing up stuff that you couldn’t get to tonight…
Wendy, if 2 out of 3 is picky with their veggies, it doesn’t make sense. It’ll be cheaper to just buy locally grown organic whatever you like that go through the CSA (I’ve done the calculations when I was thinking of joining the CSA and there are a lot of veggies that I don’t like).
Snaps – do you belong to the Greenwood Heights CSA that distributes out of the little park on 6th and 18th?
Rf – am afraid that would happen to us too as it will just be my husband who doesn’t eat fruit/veggies the way l do and a baby that will not be eating come summer…..
wendy — we’re in Greenwood CSA. You have to embrace the stuff you don’t normally eat, but the variety of regular and oddball stuff is pretty good — it’s not all beets and chard. So now I know 3 ways to make kale yummy and I make a pretty mean turnip puree. If you are willing to do that, and cook home half the time, you should be fine. Get a half share (every other week) ore ven split a half share with someone else. The volume won’t overwhelm you that way. But if you are the only veggie eater, it does seem like a bit of a waste.
Most of the packing is done. We started on Sunday and my wife and mother in law have been working steadily over the week. Movers not shakers shows up in the morning and deals with the rest.
Right now I just need to break free of this endless conference call so I can deal with some of these details!!! Wish I weren’t stuck late at work tonight.

Gem, no, I don’t belong to that.
Slopey, how much are the shares?

Lech, if you need someone to help after 3pm, I can drop by as well. Snappy and DH have my cell number.
