Moving Day

This week we have been moving. We're only moving two houses down, but the amount of work it is taking, shuttling things back and forth, is amazing.

Young children, of course, slow things down considerably. They want to help, but often end up sitting and unpacking something that has just been packed. During meals and nap time, parents have to work in shifts.

I started moving things on Friday morning. By Friday night, we had moved most of our things to the new house. On Saturday, we were shopping for items that were necessary to make the house livable and continuing moving the small things.

On Sunday, today, we spent the day cleaning the old house and trying to organize the new one. Tomorrow is a regular work day and we have to be pretty much settled.

The long hours and hard work are starting to show. The children are overly tired, arguing and fussing. Hopefully we will be done in a few hours and be able to take a breather.

We will be without an Internet connection until sometime late next week, so this will be the last post for a few days.
