Getting Closer
In just a few minutes I will shut off my computer, take it apart and officially go offline until probably Sunday. I have internet at the new house starting Saturday, and Saturday is our big move day (or if not big, at least the day when we will start sleeping there), but I might be too tired to bother with setting up my computer…although you never know given my level of internet addiction.
I think we are doing okay in terms of moving. I’m taking my computer stuff and the desk and chair that I currently use but that will go straight to my garage at the new place, then tomorrow goes the tv and its related crap, then Saturday morning I pack up all the remaining kitchen stuff and general survival supplies we’ve been using during the past week. Saturday morning also brings my brother and two of his friends to move my mattress and box spring, my boys’ mattresses, my couch, my elliptical trainer, and my three potted Japanese maples. After my new-to-me fridge arrives (and I have a chance to clean it out), I’ll empty out the fridge and freezer and that, my friends, should be IT.
Until Sunday and/or Monday when I return to start cleaning. In my most extravagant fantasies I imagine finishing cleaning on Monday and then being DONE DONE DONE DONE, but we’ll see.
I cannot wait to start settling into my new house. I feel happier every time I go there and I’m especially looking forward to how I feel when I don’t have to leave.
