Tomorrow begins the final stage of our moving saga. I was lucky enough to score a relocation deal with my company, so not only are the movers actually MOVING our stuff, but they're packing it too! Which will most definitely result in weeks and weeks of unpacking because I'll have no idea where anything is. I may be a bit of a control freak, but I just like to do things myself!
As happy as I am that we won't be sporting our 'college' look in our house anymore, (although very thankful for the borrowed furniture), I'm dreading this. Dreading having a mess in the apartment. Dreading the aggravation I'm going to feel looking at the piles upon piles of 'crap'. We have so much stuff, too much stuff. And most of all, I'm dreading going back. Back to our house in Columbus.
I love that house. I really didn't want to leave it. It was my first home and it was supposed to be mine for much longer than it was.
I know that the trees will be blooming in the backyard, full of flowers and life. The sunroom will have beams of sunlight shining through, just inviting us to sit and stay awhile. My reading chair, so carefully placed in front of a window, just waiting. I love it.
But it's not ours anymore, and life goes on. On to the next adventure...cramming a houseful of stuff, into a 2 bedroom apartment.

Oooh did you sell it??

Moving can be so cumersome, but in the end it is so nice to start fresh! And you can clean things out as you go...you're almost done!!

We didn't sell it yet, but we really need our furniture in Cleveland so we're emptying the house out!

I hate moving and I hate packing, but I'm like you. I would rather just do it myself so I know where things are!
