Okay, so I think we’re getting the hang of this packing thing. We’re essentially done, with just a few random items left. The move is scheduled for Tuesday, after which we will be have what we euphemistically call a “transition” period, and then on to Portland. I will probably continue to blog sporadically through this, but since everyone else is busy with end-of-year amusements, things should work out nicely.
A couple of weeks ago, Mark was saying that he’d rather get audited than deal with moving. I have to say, I’m starting to agree. I haven’t done much but pack, pack, pack. Sorry for the sporadic postings. And thanks to those who have emailed me with info or sent early housewarming gifts.
The next few weeks promise to be hectic as we pack and move. We’ve packed the study, our enormous amount of sports gear, most of the dishes, about half of the small appliances, and others odds and ends. (Thanks, Dad!) Now we have to start all the logistics. I’m trying to keep a list of the magazines we get so I can do changes of address, and given the vertiginous pile on the coffee table, it might be time to streamline. We still have to get a firm date from the movers, and then things will be put in motion. By the way, email me if you live in Portland. I’ve got questions for you.
So I’m back. I had promised myself I would get away from the computer, but alas the flesh is weak, so I ended up in one of those Internet cafes to check email once or twice. Okay, well, maybe every day. So.
I’ll be logging off early today so I can go pack for our vacation. I won’t have internet access, so no posts for a while. Be good while I’m gone.
To all my family and friends. Best wishes and all that good stuff.
