I still haven’t packed a single thing. Honestly, I’m not sure what my major malfunction has been in delaying this process. As you all know, we have to move. Somehow, we lucked out and found an apartment that we loved- quickly. We signed our lease a month ago today, but still haven’t begun to pack! wtf, us. Even worse, we have let any chores or duties of finding places for things slack this past month, because of the moving mentality. What’s the point, really? Our apartment is currently at a standstill, the calm before the storm. As I walked around today surveying the scene, where to start, what boxes would fit what, I noticed how incredibly dusty everything is. Now that is delaying me even more, because I don’t feel like cleaning. So I took a “break.”
Amidst my procrastination, I came across pictures of this beautiful abandoned Paris Flat. It once belonged to Mrs de Florian, who deserted her home and never returned sometime in the 1900’s. How breathing taking are these photos? Can you even imagine opening a door and finding this? That Mickey Mouse doll, the oversized vanity, an ostrich! I love how she has her paintings framed and sitting on chairs. I wonder if they will leave her apartment as is, or pack it up. Can you imagine what a task that would be? I’d really love exploring it.
Mrs. de Florian passed away in 2010, I wonder what would happen to this apartment if I just left it for 70 years. Would anyone be impressed? Or just annoyed? Any tips for efficient packing? I’m struggling over here!
