Sunday Sayings

We started packing this weekend. Well, more sorting out what's going in our suitcases and what's going in our shipment to arrive two months later really. I've discovered that clothes expand of their own volition to exceed the space you have to pack them in. Which is really rather unhelpful. So this week's Sunday Saying is, albeit in a rather loose way, dedicated to moving house.

The important work of moving the world forward does not wait to be done by perfect men.
George Eliot

And how right he was, if I waited for a perfect man to pack my suitcases for me I'd be waiting all day. (Apologies to OH, who is, in fact, the perfect man, but still isn't going to pack my suitcases for me.)
