You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just realized I won't have food for dinner in the house, so I can run my dishwasher now and then, god willing, remember to pack the clean stuff! I am getting very close to packed, which is good, but reminds me: My cousin and I were suggesting that it was a family trait to think you are basically done with a task, when you are actually 75% done, and then stopping doing anything about it. Is that just human nature, or actual family trait?

The good news (msbelle) is that I have plenty of boxes!

I mean, run the dishwasher after I finish this amazing piece of key lime pie.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, I think that might just be a human thing.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

just keep packing, woman. pack pack pack. can you wrangle a few friends or family into helping you get some essentials in the new place this weekend. always easier to start kinda living out of one place. like maybe a grocery run to stock the new place?

There's no living in two places! I am fully moving tomorrow -- done and done!

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Pete went to Target to check on iPads, but they were sold out. If I go to any retail establshment today, it will be thrift stores, but I doubt that will happen.
