Ok, we’re heading offline in the morning. I will check in from the road, so don’t worry.

Ta-Ta folks!

cool

Sunday, October 27th, 2002

My husband is the best. I went to sleep before he finished the bathroom (so I could get up early and finish the hallway this morning). I just went in there and it looks GREAT! Holy carp does it look good. I know it’s got a few coats on it as well. It still needs to be cleaned up but it looks good!

Early dinner tonight with Gina et al. and then more painting. After I finish the hallway, there will only be one room left. That room has only 2.25 walls to do and that’s it!

Sad day in general

Saturday, October 26th, 2002

Friday was just a sad day in general.

First we get news that Senator Paul Wellestone died in a plane crash, then we get news that the wonderful actor Richard Harris died today at age 72, and just now I was informed that a friend of the family has died tonight. Dot, we love you.

Sad day

Richard Harris has died. He recently played Dumbledore in the first two Harry Potter movies.

Tis a sad day today.

My head

Friday, October 25th, 2002

Oh my head! Well, I slept without the featherbed and boy did I miss it. That sucker is going to be the last thing on the truck and the first thing set off to the side.

The bedroom is completed and I’ve just finished taking down the surround sound speakers and packing them and the stereo equipment up. Go me!

I need to find out the billing cycle for the utilities and get cancelling stuff! /sigh

Now if only someone would put forth a change to the U.S. Patent Office. PLEASE!

Three coats

Thursday, October 24th, 2002

I’m painting the bedroom today. Three coats of paint. That’s how much it’s taking. Three coats! I’m on a break. (read: I’m waiting for some paint to dry) and will probably eat something soon.

Possible snow tomorrow night and also on Tuesday, moving day! /sigh Hopefully it will move through extra early or extra late so we can get everything packed in the truck. Once again let me state that we have too much crap! I can’t even paint the bedroom walls all at once because there’s still so much crap in there!

Ok, time for food and then back to painting. It dries really fast thankfully.

Snow

Wednesday, October 23rd, 2002

There is friggin snow on the ground! I went out in a pair of sandals and stepped in SNOW! SNOW people, SNOW! It will probably be all melted in about an hour. Apparently we got about two inches. Right now it just seems like we got a trace. I managed to take some pictures. They were on a disposable camera though, so it will be a while before they are developed.

Surviving

Tuesday, October 22nd, 2002

So much packing. When will it stop? Today has gone rather slowly for me. I’m dreadfully tired for some reason and hungry. So many boxes. We’ve begun stacking them in the bedroom now. All of the other rooms are full and we haven’t even finished. We have to run out in a bit for packing supplies!

Skittles doesn’t seem to know what to make of all of this. We’ve kept all of her beds and a few of her toys out. Maybe she thinks were just being messy, I don’t know. She knows something is different, I can tell.

Tonight I am going to watch Surviving the Iron Age. It’s a BBC show from last year, but I never got to see it. For some reason we don’t get BBC here. Thankfully we’ll have it when we move!

Rented

Monday, October 21st, 2002

One truck rented for next Tuesday till Monday. Yes folks, that’s the move date. We’re almost done packing. Tomorrow begins the “moving everything around” phase. Then we begin painting and repair. /sigh I’m already so tired right now. Ahhhh. :sad

On the brighter side… I love my featherbed. Even Josh likes it. I’ve actually gone to bed sore from moving stuff around and woken up the next morning feeling perfectly fine! Nice bed, cozy bed. Me like me bed. :yawn
