Thank you, all!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Action has been sprung into! Laundry is done, dishwasher is done (of course it's about to be full again), groceries are bought, pesto is made, beets are boiling for borscht.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I've made two trips to CVS (one for boxes, one for more tape) and packed three boxes. I've lost count of how many boxes I have. I'm going to have to count them when I inventory them, though, which I should have been doing from the beginning, but I didn't.

Yeah, I never did that when I moved, which was probably a mistake.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Me neither.

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

I am pretty sure I told y'all that I had a spreadsheet. It wasn't complete, but it covered a lot.

I had a spreadsheet too! With a complete inventory of each box. It made unpacking so much easier.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I've managed to have a somewhat productive morning--farmer's market and safeway, done three loads of laundry (not put away yet though), tried that exercise thing I've heard so much about, and a tiny bit of work stuff.

Now though, I think it's shower/lunch/TV time before I dive into the cleaning and work stuff again.

Given my relatively small amout of stuff, my unpacking philosophy is to do it all ASAP. Like, everything out of boxes on the second day. But I would have had no idea if a box had gone missing.

I made the borscht, which is more like beet-cucumber soup, since I forgot I didn't have as many beets as the recipe called for, and I had plenty of everything else. And I forgot to wear gloves, so my hands are a little stained pink. And THEN I had a snack of zucchini, for which I feel I deserve a medal.
