The Calm Before the Storm

Well, been up since much too early. Tis garbage day and as yesterday was a holiday needed to ensure everything went out. The last of the last now posted to craigslist to make sure everything has a home. My excuses and todo's are slowly getting crossed off the list.

The kids and Chuck are all still sound asleep (me = jealous), the garage is full of everythings and the daunting task of starting to stuff the cars full still taunts me. Once things go in, there is no going back; no going out for lunch, no running to the store, no last minute trip to anywhere at all. Trapped until the time comes to leave for the hotel and then to begin our journey.

I estimate about twelve boxes need to be packed into the vehicles. Of course, most are not in boxes but in small totes and spacebags (yes, they really do work!) The remainder are the half dozen too-big boxes of dvd's, cd's and video games for every imaginable gaming platform. The stuff that we weren't comfortable shipping. A few remaining kitchen gadgetries, the flat screens, pcs and printer. Funny, it seems like a lot more than that when I look in the garage. Is it too late to change my mind? ;) Yes, I'm procrastinating again.
