This is in addition to my move diary ...lol

Last night I said to OH (with a sigh) Did you bring the boxes home.
(Now I know the boxes are there cos I nudged a workmate of his last week.)

Yes said OH with a smile.

This evening he unloaded the back of the jeep of boxes lots of them

Me.....what the eck do I want all them boxes for, where am I going to put them ........

I know I shouldn't laugh but OH just looked bemused at me grinning and went to work .

I presume the theory is to give me a choice of size etc and I can throw away the rest. Mind given time no doubt I will use them all but I didn't want so many in one go.

Rose I know but all my books are in bread crates 15 of them already stacked in the tent..well the ones I will eventually get rid of, the others I'll box up. China don't really have any as I have melamine tableware.

I know I will use them all and be able to stack them sensibly.

I just couldn't help it when all these boxes came out the car. I really thought he would bring 1/2 doz at a time, so I could pack and stack.

poor OH mind after days of nagging for boxes with sighs and doleful looks he actually brings them home only to get moaned at lol

Ann no I can't and I know by his look when he left I am in for a ribbing when he gets home. bless him it's not the easiest time in life he can have.

I think I may line up the boxes tonight (only 1 of each size) and ask him which he thinks are best for what......

Nooooo maybe not at 2.30am after finishing work I doubt if he'll be that amused.

Mind I must pack at least 1 of them seeing as I have nagged for them that much.
Still laughing at the look on his face.
