Our HUGE moving van!! Holy cow!!*SIGH* So, the wonderful idea of the do-it-yourself DITY move (which isn't even called that anymore! - it's personnaly procured something-or-other) is much less wonderful in action. Yesterday as Rob and I were lifting heavy furniture and boxes and packing remaining boxes for upwards of 9 hours the thought "WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!?!" kept running through my head. I have still decided that my labor at this point in my life is worth the big check the government is going to give me for moving myself, but boy it is NOT EASY! With each heavy box I lifted, I was comforted by the thought that this box was 1/100 of my new couch or 1/70 of the boat we bought, etc. etc. So far, I still think it is worth it.
Today, I have a much better outlook. My arms are still so sore they won't grip anything and typing is kind of giving me little forearm spasms, but I'm sitting on our mattress in an empty (and clean!) house as Rob is returning with our boat (YAY!) and some pizza (mmm).
Tomorrow we set out for Florida!!! with stopovers in Longview and Ruston and Mobile before Panama City fills our windshields. I'm so excited to live near the beach!
Okay, I really can't type anymore because my arms hurt! But I love you all and look forward to when I get to see you again. Much love to Wichita Falls. muah!
