It looks like we will be able to leave tomorrow. I'm so DONE with packing. We've been packing for four days. I woke up at 5AM worrying that 1. we were bringing too much, 2. the car would be sluggish with all the extra weight, 3. all of our stuff would be stolen while we were either in Colorado, at a hotel, or in New York. UGH!
The McGraw-Hill project has been put to bed, finally. It was a gruesome task. It was also the first time I didn't enjoy my work, but it was the project itself.
Today, I have to climb into the van and rearrange all of the stuff that Bob has packed, so we have more room, so there is clearance and Bob can see out the rear window, and so I know where everything is. I actually made a list of inventory--what was in what bag, box, sack, so we wouldn't go through what we went through the last time we made this journey.
Our landscaper hasn't shown up in two weeks and I am so pissed. I might have to find someone else to work here while our housesitters are living here. Uh, just give us a little bit of courtesy and respect and PLEASE call us to let us know why you haven't been here. If you are out of the country, way behind on your houses, sick--just CALL us to let us know what's going on. I'm getting ready to fire their asses, but I need to find someone else now--Angie's List, here I come.
FREAKY, just as I was writing this, my landscaper guy calls--hahaha. I think I should buy a lottery ticket today. He's very lucky he called because as soon as I finished this entry, I was going to call someone else.
I'll post a pic of the inside of our van today. Stay tuned!
