Packing

Once again, we are preparing to move.  Once again, I'm standing ankle-deep in random crap while turning my possessions into tidy, labeled cubes in neat stacks.  (The tidiness of the cubes and the neatness of the stacks is all that keeps me going when the chaos gets to me.)

What's complicating this move is that we're going to a somewhat smaller place -- so there's a real incentive to offload unneeded extras -- but time is tight and I'm doing most of the packing (D already has a job in the new location, so he's only home for half the week).  I have a suspicion that we're going to end up living in a pile of too much stuff for a few weeks, and paying to move stuff we don't want to keep. 

Meanwhile I also have an essay to write, but it's definitely on the back burner for the next two weeks.

This looked cool last year - I'm caching this so it will remind me a year from now to look into it.

Update in a Time of Uncertainty

Long time no post, I know.  (I've decided that one of my Health Month tasks is to write a blog post each week, so hopefully that will change.)

Life's been busy in a low-key way, meaning that most of the busy-ness has been of short duration and of only minor significance.  Now, however, it's teetering on the edge of a lot of changes, and I'm feeling quietly anxious about it.  (I'd be running around with my arms waving in the air from nervousness, if I wasn't coping through determined denial.)

Two things are clear: D has an upcoming part-time job in Midwestern City (not this one) with unclear long-term prospects.  And we will not be staying here past October. Beyond that, little is clear.
