Mister and I have been busy packing everything away and getting ready to schlep it all across this great country of ours. The picture above is the back half of our living room. The bookcases are empty, over a dozen boxes of book are piled up in the garage, and we started in on the kitchen last night.
By the way, books are heavy. I’m glad that we’ll have my young, strong nephew coming to help us load it all into the truck.
We took all the decorations down from the tops of the cabinets last night. What a huge difference that made in making the place look packed up! Today we’re going to pack up all the low-priority items in the kitchen. We have a ton of kitchen stuff, and we can do without a lot of it for the next few weeks.
Few weeks. We have less than a month to go – 28 days to be exact! And I have just 3 short weeks of work left.
Next weekend, we have a friend coming to visit us from California before we take off for the east coast, so the guest room needs to stay intact for the time being. But we did take out pretty much all the decor and furniture, so all that’s left in there is the bed and a nightstand. As soon as she leaves, that stuff gets disassembled.
We’ve spent a lot of our free time packing (when we weren’t being sick – both of us got some sort of fast-acting plague over the past week), and there’s lots more to be done. Not to mention a few craft projects that I need to finish up before packing up my crafty supplies. It’s gonna be a busy and exhausting few weeks!
