I am stressed beyond measure about moving. THGGM keeps assuring me that all will be well.
I'm not convinced.
No major fights, though.
The previous owners, although they have been in their new place for over two weeks now, have not given us the keys.
This has THGGM frustrated. They are having a garage sale there today, tomorrow and Saturday. THEN they have someone coming to pick up what doesn't sell. THGGM assured her that we would not need the garage, just want to get in to do some painting. No, she said, because she hasn't vacuumed yet.
Oh, well. I'm not ready to move yet.
When we began packing, our goal was to finish one room COMPLETELY before we (I) moved on the the next.
So much for the best laid plans.
Not one room is totally emptied out. No, not one, no, not one.
While packing up an old dresser upstairs, I found a Christmas letter I had written in 1998. That is the year we moved here.
NINE YEARS AGO? And to think that it was just this January that THGGM looked at me and said, "I think we finally have this place how we want it!"
Anyway...
Today my mom and Baby Boy come to play. I hope I don't get confused and attempt to pack them into a box.
OH! And Baby Boy has learned to say "Excuse Me!" Instead of what he had been doing, which was pushing against whomever was in his way while uttering a sound something like "UGGGGH!". Although, his 'excuse me' sounds a bit like "Sue Me!".
(i'm tired.)

Oh. How. I. Hate. Moving.
I don't want to think about moving. Ahem. Don't clean then...honestly if it isn't going to stand for someone else, why bother?
Just curious, when you closed on the house, what date did the previous owners have to be out by?
You and baby boy will have fun exploring the new house.

I hate moving more than anything.
I really truly hate it.
The people we bought from had 30 days from June 28, so they are well within their rights.
And, if it were up to them, we could have had the keys much sooner. Apparently they had people who needed to pick up things from the house and that caused the delay.
Of course, being well within their rights didn't stop THGGM from getting snarky about it. ;)
