Moving Out and Moving On.....

Even my cat is asking, "Are We Really Moving Again!?"

Moving isn't my idea of fun. It's exhausting. There are about a million things I'd rather do than place all of my belongings in boxes only to have to unpack them and find places for them all again! I'm groaning just typing this.

There is a plus side to moving. It is a good time to "purge". I have a 10-year-old daughter who has outgrown clothes, outgrown styles and outgrown toys. It's been a good learning opportunity to place those outgrown items in bags for our local thrift stores. Some other child can now appreciate them. It's also a great time for me to look through all my piles of paperwork and figure out what really needs to be saved and what can be tossed. If only if wasn't so exhausting! and time-consuming! and did I mention exhausting?!

In case you're checking out my blog for new reviews and wondering why I'm not posting frequently...this is why. In a little over a week, this will all be over (I'm repeating this mantra minute-by-minute to maintain my sanity!) and things will be back to reading and reviewing as normal.

Good luck with your move! My cat was very upset when we moved about a year ago. Now she loves our new place, so hopefully yours will adjust well too.

Good luck with the move (if it's not happened already) and special good luck to your cat with the move! My cats HATED us for a day or so after we moved house... then they got all curious and brave about exploring... and now it's THEIR house and we are just guests, as far as they're concerned.
