Stop the insanity!
Much craziness ensues.
Not only do we move in a week, but also we need to get the invitations out as well. These things are becoming like having a baby...been carrying them around for at least nine months, working slowly on them as the size grows, and finally, with a lot of labor at the end, they will come out. But it's gonna hurt.
I'm probably going to take a sick day next week-I just have way too much stuff to do, and lots of sick days left (only taken 2 this year).
I've changed my address with a bunch of people today, although I'm sure I'll have to do a bunch more before this is all over. Ah, the joy of moving.
Actually, I am enjoying the leisurely pace and the move-and-purge aspect of this. I love having time to go through my stuff and get rid of the things I don't need or don't use. I have 8 bags ready for Goodwill and counting. It's like a massive Spring cleaning. I find that there's something soothing about purging and simplifying. We will be so much more spread out in the new place...it will be great not to be crammed into a space any more. I am sure that we will grow to fill the space, especially after the wedding, but for now it will be great to have some open space. It feels good to be cleaning, moving, purging, changing. Somehow, it's appropriate for the Spring and the renewal and the rain and nice weather.
I feel like I'm growing up, but I think I'm ready.
No more rent, now it's a mortgage. No more single me, I will soon be married.
We can put holes in the walls and paint and decorate. If we make friends with our neighbors, we could be on Trading Spaces.
Look out, grownups, here I come!
