and it’s done

And thus it ends….

Spent my first day as one of the no-longer-employed spending money … wouldn’t you know it? We got tubs to pack away stuff for the move that I don’t quite trust the movers to deal with – things such as the clothes we won’t be needing until we get a house, linen, bathroom stuff …. well, you get the idea. Come Monday, after I read my first couple of pages out of “You can heal your life” for the reading assignment my sis and I have. We’re going to be reading that together, making notes, comparing notes.

Then I start packing … which isn’t as hectic an undertaking as it sounds…. I am told the movers will take care the bulk of that I just need to secure (1) the stuff we will need for the trip and the days just after we arrive and (2) the stuff we’ll want for our mini-vacation to Michigan (which kinda works out to be a subset of the same stuff from (1) anyway).  For the most part, the biggest work is figuring out how to travel with a feral cat and a needy cat on a near 5 day journey with 2-3 stops along the way and making sure all our subscriptions are cancelled or put on hold, mail forwarded … stuff like that.

But today was also used for leisure – absolute and complete leisure. Even though hubby has been on vacation now for a week, today was the first Saturday we’ve spent together in about …. oh, 3 months?  So that was good too.

Despite being a little despondent about the whole leaving process, I have to admit that there ARE pluses to this whole business of moving … it’s an adventure, a new experience, something to blog about.

And on that note, I am heading to bed in the ever present attempt to re-align my sleep and waking patterns.
