The fun of moving

Moving is a tedious job, fraught with dangers at every turn. Hubby’s study, in particular, is a mine of disasters waiting to happen.

So here is our weekend, me sick and in pain trying my best to be helpful …. while hubby decides to “tidy” his study. This monumental effort usually involves throwing out copious amounts of paper, magazines and computer bits (that he will suddenly need 2 days after he throws them out).

It also means he will return the various bits that others have leant to him. So he happily removes a piece of hardware from his machine, in preparation to return it to a friend. Hey presto …. Windows barfs itself … and he appears to have lost huge volumes of photos, including the pictures from the latest wedding. It’s hard to feel sorry for him …. especially when he will drum it into less computer literate friends about the need to back up.

I won’t say I told you so babe ….. but it was a substantial lesson. 😉
