How do you keep yourself motivated while moving (between houses)?

Question

What do you do to keep yourself on track?

Answer 1

To keep organized during transitions like moving, I usually get a good old spiral notebook.  Since the computer will be packed, and I may not have electricity available, the spiral notebook works best.  I jot down to-do lists, phone numbers, account numbers - anything involved in getting me into my new place.

I also designate one box labeled UNPACK ME FIRST.  I put all the things I will need to get through the first day and night, the things I want to get to first, etc.  That way, I don't have to unpack everything to find some particular thing I need early.  I also pack the other boxes based on the room I intend to unpack them.
