This was yesterday. You should SEE the pile now.
The movers are coming at 8 a.m. on Tuesday. I still have to pack my office, the kitchen, and my bedroom, but I had to take tonight off. The need for a break became embarrassingly apparent when I asked for a box of “chocolate nuggets” at the Dunkin Donuts drivethru and then, at home, wandered aimlessly around for 45 minutes mumbling where’s my tape gun over and over and over. It was in my hand.
Speaking of over, this can’t be over soon enough.
Also, you find some weird stuff when you move. After Son One moved out the other day, I began loading a box of stuff he forgot. It looked like this:
Yes, that’s a sword. I’m going to have to take it to him because taking it home on the bus might be problematic for him. And since we’re just about to buy a house, bailing him out would be out of the question.
Wish us luck finishing up tomorrow. We’re going to need it!

I suppose it won’t help to remind you that you have clothes in my closet? And I kinda sorta had to leave my blue dress there, too (it wouldn’t fit in the car!)

A month ago you mentioning that it’s not advisble to carry a sword onto a bus, would have made me wonder what you were talking about. Then I took the bus from Vancouver to Whistler and read the Safety Rules while waiting for the bus to come in….

A sword, some balls and one shoe. Looks like my son’s closet.
Looking forward to having Tina back up and blogging regularly.
