Packing

It’s a tedious chore, but it has to be done. Now that it’s finally cooling off, I hope we can get more accomplished. The past three days it was simply been too hot to go upstairs to do anything after 10am. The house is about half packed at this point, and already is starting to look barren. The pictures are gone from most of the walls, there are boxes everywhere, and it’s hard to find things. Dave is taking the first load up to Oregon this week, taking things we want to store at my parent’s place in Grants Pass. Then he’ll drive to Portland and leave his truck there, and fly home. I’ve been enlisting friends and family to help me while he’s gone. I can pack, or I can watch two kids, but rarely both at the same time. It’s a juggling act either way. Most of what I’ve accomplished so far has been in logistics: booking flights, making phone calls, getting arrangements made for our new address.
