The Move...

Yesterday we moved out of our home and in with Ed and Sue (Ed's parents). Our house sold within 2 months, which was faster than we had been expecting. Though don't get me wrong, we are happy about it, we just don't quite have our ducks in a row to be buying our own house quite yet. We would like to wait until Ed has a stable full time job, so that we can buy a house that we really like, on two full time incomes versus just one. Luckily, Ed and Sue were gracious enough to let us move in with them until that happens, which we are all hoping happens sooner than later.

As far as the actual moving went, it took longer than we were predicting. I had 95% of the house packed up, and we had 60% of the POD filled, we just had big things left and last minute things to pack up. But it amounted to more work than we had planned. We had Crystal and Garrett lined up to help originally, but Garrett ended up working overtime, so we lost most of our muscle strength, so Ed II came to bail us out at the last minute. And Crystal still came, which was a ton of help. Needless to say, through the rain, and 2 trips with the Penske truck, by 4pm we had everything moved. And throughout the following week we went back to clean last minute things up and get last minute things from the garage.

Sorry no pictures, too busy working like a horse.
