Moving Day
Soon,
I will be able to talk about something other than boxes and liquor
booty. Today we close on our houses. At noon we sell this house,
and at 4pm we buy the next house. I may have carpal tunnel by the
time I'm done, or I may be crippled entirely. Who knows.
Today
we move boxes into the truck. Boxes and couches and beds and clothing.
Tomorrow, we unload said truck sometime after 9am, and we settle
into our next house. We hired some students from the college to
come help out. About 15 of them responded to my advertisement on
the school website. I have extra phone numbers to call people if
we need reinforcements. I think it will be okay though. We should
be able to do everything we need to do today without difficulty.
Tomorrow,
after everything is out, I will go through and clean everything
and we'll be done by noon. That's my plan. That's my plan.
It
seems really surreal as I look around. We aren't fully packed, but
can't really pack more until some of this stuff is out of the way.
So getting boxes and couches and end tables and bureaus into the
truck will give us elbow room for more boxes to put stuff in. It'll
all come together nicely.
I
think our internet stays on until tomorrow morning, so I will try
and post flickr shots and maybe squeeze in an entry at the alternative
journal at amusingsbnl.blogspot.com
rather than do a whole post here. If our internet gets turned off,
I can always hop onto a PC somewhere and hit the blogspot account
to do an update, so if you feel a ken to know how we're doing, chances
are a brief update may be found there before it is found here. I
may not get into this one until maybe Monday.
So
anyway kids... this is it.
I'll
post from amidst the unpacking of boxes and the styrofoam peanuts
later.
Thanks
for all your love and support. This lady needed it. And on that
note, where's my coffee?
