I was under tremendous stress to pack Henry's room before the big day arrives.
Being a cleanliness and neatiness freak, I just can't sweep everything under the carpet and wait till the wedding is over to do all the packing properly! I felt very troubled and uneasy in getting married in such a messy way.
I stayed over at Henry's last night, hopefully to start on the packing but it failed. Reluctant to get up this morning as I wanted to run away from the reality of packing. No choice but to drag myself out of bed while Henry has gone back to work on a Sat.
I took the liberty to pack all of Henry's stuff as I do not want to hold this back any longer.
There were too many stuff which I don't know if I should keep or throw.
There were too many clutters in his wardrobe and cabinets which disturbed me terribly.
There were too many unused space which are not utilised to their max.
There were too many things lying all over which I have no idea where to get started.
I think my MIL saw how vexed and frustrated I was, hence she offered her help. Being the mother, she knows room packing is not the son's forte and the best time to do it is when the son is not at home to obstruct. Hehe! Therefore, the 2 of us managed to pack, categorise and organise 3/4 of all the stuff properly before Henry got home.
I could not have done all these without my MIL, really. Of course, I expressed my heartfelt thanks to her after that! Love her to bits!
Packing done, and Henry and I were down to cleaning the windows. Tough job, I would say. The windows have not been taken care of for quite a while. We poured away 7 pails of black-coloured water and the 2 pieces of white cloths were completely reduced to a dark shade of grey.
I would say the room is almost 80% ready to be presented decently on 28 May, we will just need a touch-up and minonr packing to do 1 week prior to that!
