Last day by myself...

So we're down to the wire on the packing detail. There are some things I think ill still leave at the old place (ie cleaning supplies & some food), but for the most part, I should have everything done and packed today. Since Mike and Danielle, and possibly Adam are coming at **7:30** tomorrow morning... LOL... I pick up the UHaul at 8:00 so I may go a bit early to see if I can just get it earlier.

It looks like we'll have a decent crew tomorrow and I'm kinda feeling like it'll be a party of sorts, kinda excited to see a lot of friends at once :D

Pic is me lying on the couch for a break (been going since 8:00), looking into one corner of the room. This has been a fun place. Chelsea put up the twinkle lights somewhere between Thanksgiving and Christmas, we put them on a switched outlet, and they stayed up all year, as our living room lighting. Much better then the harsh overhead fan lighting.

So I need to still take that down, as well as Vickie's framed drawing and the silver mirror at the top of the stairs....and fill any holes left behind there. I need to take apart the sound system, but I really don't want to! I've got the ipod playing so maybe ill do it last thing tonight since its not too difficult.

The only 'major' packing is to get all the 'paperwork' all packed nicely into boxes for transport. Right now they're in open-top boxes so not set up for moving. I hate my paperwork! Its sooo disorganized and I can never seem to catch up enough to do that. Teesha said the other night that even though I'm super-awesome at organizing other stuff and people, apparently it all goes to crap when it comes to my personal life. I tend to agree, its just crazy I can't get a grip on this stuff.

Okay its time for a nap...here's to blogging on the blackberry!

shortest nails ever!!!


I haven't had short nails in soooo long! I just pre-emptively cut them all off in anticipation of moving tomorrow and saturday... I don't think I've ever had all my nails the same length either :)

New diggs!

After a day sorta fraught with disaster, finally got into my new place! The set of keys I was given were labelled and marked as to what was what, but when I visited over my lunch break, I was batting 0 for 4...ugh! Mailbox key, house key, and pool gate key - none of the 4 keys I was given worked! Man alive...


Thankfully there's still a lockbox on it - so my realtor gave me the code to get my 2nd key out, and I was able to get in! Still not sure how ill get the rest of the keys since I'm pretty sure its the landlord's fault - and he lives in CA...I just hope I get the mailbox key soon since my mail started arriving there today! (I ran into the mailman while I was there at lunch and he looked thru and saw my change of address mailing)

Say goodbye to memories


Alas, its time to say goodbye to these logos I did in gumpaste for the VerticalBlu Life In Transit wrap party cake. They've been decorating the counter since then, but I'm trying to be better about getting rid of stuff...they always say, take a picture to remember - so here's a try at that...
