I have recently moved and am unpacking boxes I had in my garage for 8 years. I am so overwhelmed-- with a plastic drawer full of zippers, a stash of colored velcro, a banker's size box full of lace from my Mom's sewing business, UFO's, calico bought in the 70's--it goes on and on. Sometimes lost boxes are a good thing.!

Actually Cat, nothing was. When I packed every box from Alaska, I put a black trash bag in each one before I packed items in them. I only broke one item and nothing has been ruined. This out of 2- 26 foot U-hauls.
I feel pretty fortunate.
