A week from today, the movers will be here to move us out of our first house.

We are packing furiously, and trying to get everything ready for them. We want to make this simple, quick, and painless — easier for them is easier for us.

We nab the keys on Monday, and that will mark our first “legal” intrusion into the new house. We’re already planning to take a few items with us so we can start marking our territory.

So much to do…. new locks, new dryer, new bed, visitors….. This is going to be a busy Christmas week, even though I only have three days of work at the office. Kevio will be up on Christmas Day, and I know he will help tremendously.
