isn't today supposed to be a day of rest or something?

it's supposed to be a high of 84 degrees today, which of course make sense, as we'll be hauling boxes and the remaining furniture from our house.

i make lists when i have a lot to get done. i make a lot of lists. not so much to reference and check off during a task, but to just get all this clutter out of my brain and on to paper, where it seems more manageable.

today's list is: STUFF TO GET FROM THE HOUSE
1. dustin's clothes and the remaining dresser, misc. from the bedroom
2. misc. boxes out of our storage closet
3. futon and large steamer trunk
4. misc. from abbey's closet
5. dishes, remaining kitchen stuff
6. dishwasher (although i'm not sure where it will fit in our new kitchen, unless we opt to suspend it from the ceiling)
7. misc. from computer room
8. misc. from bathroom
9. misc. from basement

note the amount of "misc" on the list. there is a lot of misc. i'm hoping that much of this "misc" can actually be thrown away, to avoid having to pack, unpack and sort "misc." after all, if it is called "misc," is it really worth moving? if this "misc" has been sitting at the house for days now, can it continue to sit in a place known as a "dumpster" or something?

pets are adjusting well to the move. however the first night, our cat, brother, refused to come out of a closet. and he meow SO LOUDLY. you've never HEARD such a meow. dixie the dog is doing well, although she has not put together that yes, she CAN use the yard as a bathroom. it's as though she doesn't want to make a bad impression on the neighbors.

and tomorrow is a holiday, so NO WORK FOR ME! hurrah! i like my new job, yes, but who doesn't like a day off?

oh, and if anyone wants a FREE upright piano, contact me and if you can haul it (or hire someone to haul it), it's all yours.

it's now 91 degrees and we are done transporting stuff for the day.

now it's time to unpack. but we can do that while sipping vodka drinks and enjoying our central air.

It's a shame you are so far away from me. I'd love a piano and now I have room for one.
