Packing

We are packing like crazy. Mom stayed for the week to help out. I don't know what we would have done without her. I was able to feel like I was accomplishing something at home even though I was at school-teaching. I am so thankful for her help. I am also thankful for the help of friends. We have some people helping us out tomorrow as well as next Saturday. We are taking our stuff to storage on April 7th. After that, we will be living very simply for the next two months. Sometime during the following week we will transition over to the studio apartment four blocks away. My BIL is coming to help out next Saturday-Wednesday. That will be really good!

It's hard to pack. There are so many things that I can't decide what to do with... Keep it? Sell it? Toss it? We will really need to downsize because our next house is a lot smaller than this one... so I just keep that in mind when making decisions. It will be like starting over from scratch! We are having yard sales on Friday and Saturday. Hopefully everything will sell! I guess what doesn't sell will go to the thrift store in town...

I guess I'll go back to it...
