Jump Run and Roll

Hello readers

We are eager and ready to move into our new home. Although each person within earshot always says, "before you know it you will be in your new home," it seems like this last stretch is an obstacle course. Instead of the traditional obstacle course commands of JUMP, RUN, ROLL, we have to navigate a maze and SIGN HERE, MEET SOMEONE THERE, and TALK TO MR XY AND Z.

This being the case, I find myself wanting to come home and take a nap when we need to pack and wrap more stuff. Our little cat can pick up on the weird vibe. He is freaking out a little bit with the furniture moving out of one room to another room. The other effect is that Rachel and I are eating late and falling asleep in front of the Tube pretty early.

So who was on the agenda for this evening? It was the mover. We hired a local firm to help us move. The estimator worked quick; he was real efficient, professional and personable. He actually looked like the high school math teacher who doubled as the band instructor. He was this thin guy with a head of gray hair and black rimmed half-glasses.

So ladies and gents, just remember, when you move, it will be time to go through the obstacle course.
