I refuse to panic... really, I do.
Jul. 3rd, 2005 09:15 amWe get possession of the house one month from today. Despite having filled many boxes, there's still tons of stuff to sort and pack. And my to-do lists keep getting longer, no matter how many things I check off of them.
Stuff is getting done, though. I packed two more boxes last night, so almost all the books are packed. And I got the last of the books I wanted to sell to Abraham's yesterday. I only got $10 in credit for them, but they were ones Banyen wouldn't even take, so that's OK with me.
My goal for this coming week is to actually book the movers, now that I've confirmed with work that I can get the day I want (August 17th) off, to fill the last four boxes that are already in the house, and to sort my desk stuff. I'll get the warehouse to set aside more boxes for me, and next weekend I think I'm tackling the lesser-used kitchen stuff.
I can't believe we will be walking into our new house in a month. It is starting to feel a little surreal: Did we really buy a house? Because of it was so long ago that we were last in the house and last doing anything directly related to it (i.e., signed papers, etc.), it feels un-real. But I saw the house from the bus on Friday, and that gave me a little jolt.
Russ is still in bed, but I am going to have to find some quiet work to do. Getting something done will make me feel more in control. I hope.
