On August 4, we moved. It required a Herculean effort, but we managed to collect all of our stuff into one medium-sized truck and drive it up the road a piece. Fortunately, by ‘we’ I mean a team of very energetic professional movers. Much of our stuff remains packed neatly away in boxes, and it very well could take years before we have that useful set of silver napkin rings at the ready. Somehow I think we’ll adapt.
Quote of the Move:
That house weren’t that big, but you sure was usin every nook n cranny.
Well said, Teeny, well said.
The upshot of all of this is something that feels like a new life. Last week I didn’t even start the OldsmoBuick until Thursday morning. Last night I left work at 5:30, joined Jenn and the munchkins at the pool, did dinner and bedtime, then went back to prep lab for this morning. It is a completely different experience, and I love it. And did I mention the ice cream joint about four blocks away? Good thing I’m riding my bike again, I suppose.

“Herculean effort” is an understatement, but it’s certainly well worth all of the work from all! I’m so glad that you’re all moved and mostly ’settled’… and CLOSER to everything! ENJOY…
