Yeah, it kinda sucked, but my job kept us moving, and each move was a step up.  Sometimes a very small step, but a step up.  Also, I miscounted it; was only five moves, counting the initial move when we first got married, so really only four moves over the next ten years.  But each one was either a better job, or a better apartment, or both, so it was worth it.  Kinda put us into a weird mentality, though, that we've never really shaken off.  A lot of stuff is still in boxes, and we dig it out when we need it, and after all this time, I guess this is just how we are.  We're used to it.

Since they're not actually hurting anything, there they remain, out of sight and out of mind.

This is my wife, and decidedly not me. I know there is a ton of shit in our attic that we will never have one iota of use for. And it bugs me. Knowing it is up there, serving no purpose whatsoever.
