Running Behind

Since I began this blog in 2012, I have NOT been this far behind.  A post is due tomorrow, and I am presently writing this on the day before. This is NOT like me.  I hate deadlines, and avoid them as far as I am able.

I am behind because of ONE big issue-MOVING!  If you haven't moved recently, good for you, and G^d may have enabled you to forget how much is involved. It seems that we have been moving since right after Christmas. On Monday 12 March the professional movers from Two Men and a Truck cam to move the 5 big items we did not feel safe moving. They did a superb job, and got our bed, Brenda's dresser, our big, big bookcase and the oak sideboard and my folk's china cabinet moved to the new place. We spent our first night there. Yesterday, 23 March, we helped our daughter and son-in-law and 2 grands move into the super-clean house we had moved out of scarcely 2 weeks earlier. IT was nice to be far enough along in our move to have the time and energy to help them. They had 8-10 folks helping them, so it was considerably easier than our 3-man team.

We have all the boxes unpacked except for those in the garage. We are finding good places for our things, and we are better organized than in many years. This house is spacious, and we are filling up those spaces rapidly, but at least we know where things are--far the moment, until we forget.

There is an organizational plan, so maybe this will come out better than our past moves.

There were a few hitches in the plan, but we will save those for later.  Oh, and the "to-Do" list is shorter than it has been since early Jan.

Have a restful day!
