Brief Update
May. 9th, 2006 01:36 pmThe Humboldt house fix-ups are coming along very nicely, though our packing as stalled. It's so much more fun to hang out with Joe's folks in the evening rather than packing. Joe's mom is spoiling us a bit also, with nice home cooked meals each night. I think we need to set a goal this week though to get at least one of the basement rooms packed.
Joe and I just met up for lunch as Costco, followed by a little browsing. I found a cool atomic clock / outside temperature monitor thingy. I went ahead and bought it since its small. We saw several other things that we think would be nice for the new house, but they are larger and can wait until we have a place for them.
We still haven't decided on a moving company yet. Dale, a friend of my Mom, who helped my folks move a couple years ago, gave me a call yesterday. His place is MUCH cheaper than the other companies I've been getting quotes from, but he is booked on the Saturday after signing. But he is available on that Friday. I'm thinking of hiring him just for the furniture. We can move the boxes ourselves.
I'm trying to keep my gym schedule, which isn't easy with packing and family at home. I've been starting to really feel the changes in my body lately. I hope I'm able to maintain my momentum this summer, though I fear I could easily be derailed by the move and other summer activities.
