Baggage Away!

Well the move has officially started! Our unaccompanied baggage was picked up today, and that went very well! Don and one of the packers talked non-stop the whole time about military history and crash sites on the island. As it turns out, this guy knows the guy that owns the land where this crash site is that Don has been hoping to get access to. (Did that make sense?) Packer-guy is going to set it up for Don and call this weekend and probably hike with him to the site. Don was stoked!
So only 3 weeks until the main pack starts. I have much I want to get done, so I'll be quite the busy bee! I have sewing projects I need to finish, I have more computer files I need to sort and get backed up, I need to get the yard sale together for not this weekend, but next (the 7th), and we still need to get the bushes in the backyard whacked back down to a reasonable size. I swear, whoever thought it was a good idea to plant bougainvilleas as a hedge obviously never had to maintain them!!!! They can be beautiful, but What a pain!! LITERALLY! The thorns are horrible! But at least this is the last time I have to deal with them! YAY!!

Less then 60 Days!!!!

The countdown has passed the 60 day mark!!! Woo Hoo!!! Less than 60 days to go!!! YAY!!!
It's time to start getting ready for our garage/ houseplant sale. And it's time to start packing our fragile things that I don't trust the movers to pack, -like Don's airplane models, and my glass hummingbirds, our wedding cake top, ...oh, yes, I have to get that big amethyst geode packed in its crate.
OH! the packing/ moving dates are finalized, by the way.
The movers will pack/ pick up our unaccompanied baggage on 26 June.
Our household goods are to be packed 16, 17, and 18 July and picked up on the 19th.
