I just realized that this weekend Dennis will have been gone for a month. Already 1/4 of the way done! The scary part is that it went REALLY fast. And...that's only 3 months left. If you count the 3 weeks or so that he'll be home before we actually leave here...that's barely 4 months.
Four months to clean out the basement.
Four months to get rid of unnecessary toys and clothes.
Four months to get medical clearances, orders, schedule move dates, sell the car.
Four months to give notice to utilities, cell phones, landlord, schools, family...
I'm freaking out a little. So, in my already busy week, I met yesterday with a group of friends who all want to help each other get more organized. We are going to meet twice a month at each other's homes to discuss ideas and actually put our ideas into practice. I am beyond excited about it....and a little sad that I only get 4 months with them. (shouldn't we have started this last year?) It's the 3rd party thing, I'm convinced, that helps us have those "light-bulb" moments. What I need is an un-emotional attachment to my stuff....
I have done the first go-through in my craft room...I know it will need another...and another. But, that, and the scrapbooking project for Christine, have really gotten me excited to do my own scrapbooking...when will I find the time? I don't want it to have to wait 6 months til we are in our new home, but, I guess if I can clean out now...set-up will be easier. Then, I'll have all the fun time...right?
In the meantime, I have a menu system to implement...thanks so much GEL girls!
