moving right along

Things are moving along. We have the rental truck set up for this weekend to take all the big furniture. Next Saturday night we will be sleeping in our new house. Maybe too much to do to be sleeping, but we will be there anyway. Bialosky has already moved in and taken his place on the stairs. He has lived on the second step up in my stairway in every house we have owned with stairs.
I haven't had any time to sit down and blog lately. We spent all last weekend working at one or the other of the 2 houses. DH moved his woodworking tools last weekend. He didn't want to wait for the big truck so he packed up his pickup towing my dad's trailer so he could get the space set up before the big move day. I took my CRV filled with as much as would fit and got some of my kitchen put away. I figured I could live here a week without things like my roasting pan, baking dishes, blanching pot, wok and some of my accumulated Tupperware. I also took 3 18 gallon totes, 1 30 gallon tote and a double cardboard file box full of fabric. I thought it was going to make a HUGE dent in my stash, but when I looked I had only emptied about 1 1/2 cupboards out of my 6 cupboards of fabric. *oops* I proudly showed DH how much was empty and he sort of looked incredulous and said "Is that all?" Oh well, maybe this is the wakeup call I need to really stop buying. So far August has been an easy "no buy".
We have one more day to spend at the house getting it totally ready for our furniture. All the spiders thought we left it empty for them. There are spider webs all over the place. I HATE spiders. I always tell DH "If it has less than one leg or more than 4 I don't want anything to do with it." We also have to finish painting DS room. It came painted with a sort of salmon pink. We are painting it a sort of sage green. We have the first coat almost on and will have to finish up the second. I am going to need to back to work to get some rest after all of this. :c)
