Everything you own in a box to the left...




We organized, we shuffled, we packed, (we visited--Thanks Kris for the surprise visit on our sad day...) we painted, we fixed up, we cleaned a little (and discovered that avoiding a nervous breakdown because of details like totally cleaning the house that you are abandoning is totally worth $120 for someone else to do it), and locked the front door.

We did it, we packed it up (well, someone else packed it up) and we left...probably the hardest move so far because we were leaving home, for real. We loved our neighborhood, our friends and our family...it was a good time.

That first picture... oh, it breaks my heart! It brings back that gut-wrenching feeling of seeing what was once your home as nothing more than a box. You only see your home like that when your life is turned upside down and you're either moving in or out. Oh, the pain... the pain... I never want to ever move again. How do you do this?? You are strong and I admire you very much this very minute!
