Tomorrow we close on the new house. Oh, thank goodness because this packing stuff is for the birds. We're keeping our current house and will be renting it out. That being said, I still want everything moved this weekend because we are all procrastinators and might never get it done. Besides, we leave for vacation on the 10th and have contractors coming to the old house to paint and stuff so it NEEDS to be done.
As with any big event, it's always difficult to get anything else done besides the task at hand. The past few weeks, we've really gone above and beyond to ensure our stress level remains at a minimum. The list below is a small sample of the past 6 days.
Packing - CHECK!
Orientation at Auburn - CHECK!
Blown transmission in my car - CHECK!
Ensure the check engine light comes on in another car - CHECK!
Malfunctioned air conditioning in 98 degree weather - CHECK!
Dryer heating element starting to go out (and takes 3 hours to dry one load) - CHECK!
See?? We're doing SO well and our household is completely happy go lucky right now! :-) All smiles, no tension and just lots and lots of love. (I sure hope you read that with sarcasm!)
Thankfully, tomorrow and Saturday should be in the mid-80's so at least we're getting some kind of break!
Hope all is well with everyone!

Hugs!! It will all be over soon! Promise. :)
Oh no! Well, girl, just git 'er done, then! From one procrastinator to another, good job grabbing the bull by the horns- don't let go!! Can't wait to see the new house!
Go figure all the little "extras" happen at the same time! Wish I could be there to help!
It's Murphy's Law, Bek! If something's going to go wrong, it's like dominos. But you are strong and efficient, and will let it just just fall off like water on a duck's back. I'm rooting for all of you. Wish I could be there to help too. Can't wait to see all of you and the new home. Have a safe 4th everyone. Drive defensively...being very aware can save your life. Love you all.
Sounds like you're having the same luck we're having. Hope things turn around for you soon.
Sending good thoughts your way so everything goes smoothly. Looking forward to seeing pics of the new place!
Pictures please! Hope you are getting settled.
Moving is a lot of work!
