Moving Continued

So this has been a hard working weekend. We started out on Thursday night after work and moved the wood pile. Thankfully we were able to get that all in 2 loads. Yesterday we tackled the garage. We cleaned out the storage area and all of Larry's machines. Many loads later and thanks to the help of my brother-in-law and my nephew we got so much accomplished. Today we started on the stuff inside the house.

The plan is to collect many more boxes this week and continue packing the house up so that Friday morning we can hit it hard and get it done. I so want to be done moving everything by Saturday so that Sunday afternoon can be spent cleaning the old house so we can be done with it.

I can't wait to start putting things away in the new house. The kitchen is going to be so wonderful. There is so much storage space, a dishwasher and a garbage disposal. And I will have closet space to hide the vacuum. Isn't it funny the little things that can make a girl happy. :)

Moving

I think I can honestly say that I've have move more then my fair share of times in the past 17 years. Larry's job has taken us to many new place and then back to them a few times as well. And now here we go again. The house we live in is VERY small and cramped, even for just the 3 of us. The windows are in terrible shape and the roof needs to be replaced. We are renting and while the property management would love to take care of all that the home owners refuse to put any money into the house. So we are moving to a bigger house. It's just across town so not to far. But then in all the moves we've made I kind of think those far away moves are easier. Get a big truck and load everything in it and make one trip. Instead of taking one load at a time and making many many trips across town.

I have been feeling so out of touch on here and haven't blogged anything in forever. Hopefully we can get moved and settled and through the holidays and life will slow down again.
