found some things while unpacking

[redbird]

One of the random things we found when unpacking the office/study was a small pouch with a pair of earrings. I hadn't worn earrings in months, and put these in mostly to check whether I could.

There are also two small backpacks that I had completely forgotten about. They're small enough that it will be hard for me to overload them, and I don't remember why I stopped using them. One, I thought I set aside because the zipper was broken -- it's not -- and the other I had forgotten about entirely.

Some of the things that I had been keeping on my desk back in Belmont are in some other box or boxes, and a lot still needs rearranging. But this is starting to feel more like we live here, present tense, and less like we're still in flux.

I love small backpacks--my everyday carry is one, barely tall enough for a standard hardcover but small enough that shop staff almost never ask me to hand it over when there's a check-your-bags-at-counter policy. And yes, the difficulty of overload: exactly.

Yay for settling in!

Nice to feel that nestling in.

The small backpacks could be useful for keeping balls of yarn if you do crocheting or knitting.
