We had a front go through in the wee hours this morning—Willow started to bark and then a cannonade went off in the heavens—but the cold behind the front only started to see its way through after I had arrived at work: it was 64°F when I left the house and 53°F now. I can hope the cooler weather will help me feel better. It was so smothery last night it was nearly impossible to sleep and the lights are still hurting my eyes terribly today. I feel as if I am staring into the sun.

On a positive note they have delivered more photocopier paper and I have already snagged nine boxes by concentrated emptying efforts. "Xerox" boxes are the best for packing books; they are just of the right size to carry. When we went to the Miller Box Company when we were packing up my mom's house, they didn't have anything that was the approximate size, although the square "dish" boxes came close.

If you go to a big office store, like Staples or Office Max, they have file boxes with lids that I've found work perfectly for books. The boxes assemble easily with no tape, plus, they have handles or easy carrying. And when you're done, the boxes fold down for easy storage and re-use. They're about $6.99 for six boxes.

Hi, Melissa,
We had gone to Office Max originally to get packing boxes and a lady there told us that going through a packing box company was much cheaper and it was. but those sound good for long-term storage. Maybe James should get them for his box games.
