We're in count-down phase again. David's seminar, which will take place on the 27th, is almost completely sold out. In fact, he had to add an additional ballroom last week to accommodate some extra guests. While David is working on last-minute details for his Toronto production, we're in move mode. That means securing a U-haul towing trailer for the car. Working our way through our kitchen pantry staples. Sorting through clothing to donate what we don't need or what Max has out-grown. Stopping our mail. Etcetera, etc.
You think I'd have created a standard list of "things to do before the move" by now. I haven't, but I definitely should because inevitably, something gets missed or left for the last possible minute. Like the time I forgot to forward our mail and we had to have our landlord ship it to us. Well, I guess it's hard to forward mail when you don't have a new address to forward it to! That's happened more than once.
I think this time will be different, though. We've found a potential home in our next city (Raleigh, NC), but we're not totally sure about the area. With the extra time off around the holidays, though, I'm pretty sure we will sign a lease before we move there. Fingers crossed please. Before that can happen though, we've got a Thanksgiving meal to plan, Christmas gifts to make or buy, suitcases to pack, boxes to ship, Christmas cards to mail...
I've started to get overwhelmed again. Thankfully, Max is taking a full nap right now so I think I may have time to get another thing crossed off the list before he wakes. So, before I go, here are few pictures.
