I’m in the last throes of the insurgency my corporate relocation, and after moving several times with the husband, we have this down to a science. The house is clean, items were labeled, and I went through the house and pre-organized my cleaning supplies, toilet paper, dishes, etc., so that unpacking my schtuffs would be easier.
People who pack boxes for a living will pack your trash if you forget to tell them that it’s garbage. How would they know? One person’s trash is another person’s treasure. Maren Hogan wrote and told me, “I was a military brat. We GOT a moving allowance and pocketed it every time, so we always got to move ourselves.”
I told Maren that I would pay double for the luxury of having movers; however, Jack Vinson reminded me that the husband might not agree with my point of view. (So true. You know him well.)
In any case, my blogging will be limited until Thursday — but I am on Twitter. Since we’re all best friends on this blog, here are some pictures of today’s festivities at the house. Enjoy!

Congrats on being almost done! Moving is exhausting. When hubby and I moved from our rental to our house, we moved everything ourselves except the really big stuff – dressers, refrigerator, etc. We hired movers for their 4-hour minimum for the last day before we had to clear out of the rental for that stuff. Boy did we wish we had gone that route from the beginning! I couldn’t believe how fast they got everything done! So worth it. Of course it was a local move only a couple of towns away so that made it easier. But still, so very worth it!
OMG – I have the same frog in my back yard!
