Friday we brought big load lots of miscellaneous stuff. Plus truck bed full of metal such as hall tree, more little tables, DH antique fan collection, etc. We think we have one more large load and then one after that of ladder, vacuum, cleaning supplies, etc. It was hot friday and my SIL came by just in time to finish unloading. I worked putting stuff away till 11pm Friday night. Then I drove over and saw a movie and had lunch with my sister Sat. DH worked on hooking up 2 stereos and wired speakers, unpacked his shoes and organized his shop. we did a lot of organizing and decorating when I got back from lunch. Whew we are tired. Today is Sunday and we will drive back and do as least as poss. I will walk...maybe with my friend T. Its hot though (90s) so we may do it later, like 6 or so. we are coming with the last load next weekend and we have 5 people coming to get various items we gave them, which helps us and helps them. It is getting close! And retirement house is looking cute (full but cute). Have a nice Sunday!

I Survived...
I survived A to Z challenge.
I didn't do all the links/photos. I mainly just wanted to see if I could find content to post everyday and I did. So, I will keep going.
Soon I will be saying we survived selling our house and moving! This is a momentous year and even if I stop after this year, it will be a time capsule for a big year of change. Downsizing and uncluttering, selling a house, rightsizing our stuff/activity/lifestyle, moving from city to country in diff state, retiring...
So I got my continuing ed finished for my prof license Thursday thru Saturday. We took our dogs and went to RH after my DH had minor surgery wed. I only worked 20 paid hours this past week. Then wed night I framed some art and hung it, and I and spent the rest of Wed evening unpacking my truck. Mostly clothes and racks for storage in the garage. I also hung some glass crystals to jazz up an old light fixture.
Thursday I visited with my in laws after my seminar and completed the chandelier for our entry way. Friday I lunched with my sister after my seminar and then worked on my attic storage and painted 2 lamps. I also hung 2 towel racks...so master bath is finished for RH. I was so tired I went to bed at 7.30! My seminar is an hour and a half drive from RH. So, last half day was Sat, then I ran home and got the dogs and drove another 4 hours back to CH and put 2nd coat of stain on CH deck. Whew. I did not get to the leaves---was too wet. I will do that late May.
My husband and I - I think we are still just in shock that our house is under contract and we have a more definite timeline to make everything feel real. The big stuff we are keeping/moving is almost all at RH, we just have a tool box and motorcycle jack/stand and misc pers effects (kitchen/bath/clothes) to move. We figure 3 or 4 more trips with our SUV and one trip with our trailer for the bikes. Can't believe it!
