M O V I N G

Today is box city day, where I take all the boxes and I make them into a city.

Tomorrow is moving truck day, where we take all the boxes and we put them in a truck.

Friday is VA day, where we take the truck and we drive it down south. Then we take the boxes out and we are back to box city day.

Next there will be CATURDAY, where we come back and I pack up the cats and I drive south again.

Thankfully we still have the lease until 9/30 so NO, I have not packed up 100% of my stuff. I feel like I've got a very solid 90% though. Things that are left are things like free weights, paintings on walls, spices, cutlery, some of the records. I'm planning to be back for Labor Day weekend to pack up a big carload.

IT'S MY LIFE AND IT'S EXCITING AND ONCE I MOVE TO RICHMOND I'M GETTING A BIKE AND I'M NOT GOING TO DRIVE ANYWHERE UNTIL THEY MAKE ME GO BACK TO WORK!!! (Maybe.)

I have a lot of plans for my brand new life. I am excited.

Last night I dreamed about someone whom I'd loved very much. And in my dream, he loved me back and in front of our friends.

Once I move to VA there is nothing stopping me: the Pursuit of Twue Wuv. Can't hide from it anymore...

Can you get to that?

Good luck with the move!

I have learned from moving as a child and helping friends move over the years, don't leave anything for the last week. There is more there to pack than you think. That last "10%" is a bear.

Best of luck!

Just moved two weeks ago to a new apartment as well, and still unpacking. Gonna echo g5w here, best not leave anything until the very last week since there is always stuff that you forget about, and it always takes up more space than you originally expect.

I'm excited for your new life and story! Looking forward to hearing more about the changes and how the new life is shaping up, once you have recovered from the move. (I HATE MOVING.)
