It's almost over

Tomorrow is my last day at work. I quit. I have a lot to do, but instead of doing it, I'm blogging about all of it.  I should be grading papers and organizing my grade book, marking tests, reading essays ... Cleaning my office, sorting though old papers.

I spend a lot of time avoiding those things and instead I troll Pinterest, and think about what I would like to do while I'm not working.  (Also avoiding thoughts of what I have to do.)

I have to pack up move and clean my apartment.  What a mess. My uncle looked at the new house and said "look at all the space!"  I know we have more than enough junk to fill it. No kidding

I need to decide where everything will go in the house, move everything around, clean, sort, organize...

Then there is storage and there we start all over again. Move, clean, sort, organize, find places... 

Blah.

Moving. ... Moving ... Moving!

The move has begun.  We are moving into Daniel's house.  He bought it when he graduated from college, and it has been a bachelor pad since then.  When we got married he came to my apartment and left the house as a rental property to his friends.  We were saving some money to pay off credit cards.  Now it is time to move back to the house and the condition of that place was terrible.  There is a jungle in the back yard, dirt and grime on every surface, a family of rats in the garage and general nastiness everywhere.  A bunch of people came over to clean yesterday and most of the situation has been remedied, but there is still a lot more to do.  We made it through first cleaning, now carpet cleaning and air duct cleaning, yard cleaning, second cleaning, packing, moving, apartment cleaning so that we can move on to unpacking, arranging and LIVING.

Moving is hard.
