Moving is a LOT of work!

This week is Spring Break at school. I had planned to leave on Thursday with JB to go to Missouri to spend time with his family. I got sick and wasn't able to go, but he went anyway. I was really looking forward to the trip and spending time with his family, so I was pretty bummed Thursday and Friday that I wasn't able to go. Instead, I was stuck at home, feeling pretty awful, and packing boxes. 

At this point, I have the living room, spare bedroom, spare bathroom, and about 1/2 of the office packed and ready to move. Yesterday I went to Ft Worth and got a storage unit, a PO Box and dropped off a load of boxes at the storage unit. Today I continued to pack boxes, pack the office, get the business/jewelry stuff ready to move and got everything ready to start painting tomorrow. I picked out a really neutral color for all the walls called "cafe latte." I think it will look great with all the freshly painted, white trim. I killed my hand at Walmart putting the 5 gallon bucket in the cart (which almost made it worth it to pay the $30 more for the paint at Lowes because I know they would have put it in the cart for me and loaded it in my car). I also broke up about 100 strands of beads and put them away in my bead drawers and then taped them up so we can move them as well. Finally, I spent some time reading for classes this week as school is back on Monday and we are only about 6 week away from finals. I am so excited about what the next few months have in store for us as a family, but I am also entirely overwhelmed by all the work that is left to do and everything that must be done in the next two months.
