I've never had a packing dream but sometimes I imagine just throwing everything I have away. I don't have a lot--it's just too disorganized. Good luck with the blitz! -mist

I'm sending this as I know some of you will know exactly how that feels, and will be with me in spirit as I get stuck in!!

> Do any of you have 'packing dreams'? I have them regularly- in a situation where I have more stuff than I can possibly pack and a short time. Used to be in context of travelling/ moving house. Now its usually set in some wonderful location on holiday. I'm sick as a parrot when I wake up, at the waste of nervous energy in a silly dream. And that my brain can put me in a wonderful setting but then come up with this silly packing thing to spoil it!
