Well the final count down is upon us. I have moved over 50 times in my life... yes true not an exaggeration. This is "not my first time at the rodeo", and oddly it feels different than other moves. I know it is international and this is my first international move so in an odd way this is a "first" move. I have heard good and bad things about stuff making it and stuff getting lost and stuff taking forever. Thank you Rachael also for helpful notes on overlapping movers thank you thank you to all of my friends who have offered help and support. Thankfully I have all the movers coming separate days...... Just rotating stuff will be the issue. this past weekend we took apart the dining room and put all of our storage items in the dinning room. Sam jokingly says as we moved our very large entertainment center to the dining room..." I can see the movers now saying to us " I'm not Martha Stewart but there has to be a better room for an entertainment center than this"... Always the helpful husband. As you can tell from the picture there is no chance of anyone thinking that this room was arranged this way on purpose. Trust me folks this is the best view of the room the portion that didn't make the picture is packed floor to ceiling with stuff.... boxes pictures and a very odd assortment of items that would never go together. I think this is what is making me feel truly insane is the notion that in every room of the house there is something out of place . The hallmarks of a move the pictures are off the wall the cupboards that store the china are empty. I am excited it is so wonderful to think of this move. In 2 weeks I will be on a plane and starting the first part of the move ! In our military time we have moved border to border coast to coast and now across the ocean blue!!!! Tomorrow I am going to do a walk about to include any last minute storage items and to begin picturing the next wave of re arrangements. Monday the next set of movers come for the items that will go on the boat to Germany... or the bulk of our items. wish me luck in keeping it all straight... the twins have wandered off with items from the storage room I just hope I have managed to hunt them all down and put them back hahahahahah.
