Moving

Moving is never fun. I mean really who wants to pack up all their stuff, lug it into cars or trucks, lug it into a new place and then unpack everything. I mean really its a pain.

Now add on to that Jack being gone. So now I have to pack alllll by myself. I have been working on it for about a month. As of today about 39 hours before move time, I have everything packed minus my bedding, shower stuff, and a few dishes, as well as the cat and some clothes to wear. I feel pretty accomplished. I found people to help, when said people were unavailable due to work commitments, I found other people. Thank you to the amazing friends that have stepped up to help, regardless if you are actually able to Saturday or not. It was awesome of all of you to offer.

Then I turned off the utilities at the old apartment, turned them on in the new apartment. Only to get a call 2 days after I did that and changed our address that the complex is putting us in a different apartment. So I called and fixed all that.

I got the cat carrier. I will bribe the cat into it. That will not be successful I am sure but I am going to try.

So yeah moving is not fun. But I am excited to be done with it. I think I have a good plan. Once its all said and done I will take pictures. I am going to start the picture a day while you are away thing as of today. So come Sunday I will upload this week's pictures. Thursdays will always be belly pictures. So at least I have some guidance. haha.

Hope all is well with everyone.

JMS - I miss you tons!! Stay safe. Ilu!! I'll see you in my dreams my amazing man!

I love reading your blog. I absolutely HATE the fact that I am not there to help you. Im terrible at packing but Im one heck of a mover! I can't wait to see pics of the new place. Im so proud of you! This is so much change and its my worst nightmare, doing it by yourself. Which is the WHOLE reason I got out of the Marines early. I didnt want to have to worry about moving from Florida to Hawaii with 2 kids by myself. BTW screw the carrier and get the cat a leash. We both already know that the cat isnt going to have it lol. GOOD LUCK!
