Moving day is growing closer

A degree of realism was added today. A man from the moving company came to the house this evening. He came to assess how much stuff we actually have. Also we have to decide what stays and what goes. Nothing like labeling everything you own in such a manner to make you realize it's not just a drill. The good news is we found out we'll have more room in the shipping container than we will have in our new home. The best part about that is that we'll probably be able to bring home some nice furniture.

Audrey and I also had our last day of school today. Lane's last day of pre-school was last week. Now without the day to day grind to occupy us, I'm sure it'll start feeling even more real. We're all still very excited to go, but knowing that we will be leaving for good in just over a month is a very weird feeling.

We also had a going away/graduation party this past weekend in Olney. Odd to be saying goodbye to some people with such finaity, especially since some of the people will see us just as much as we used to. Even if you almost never see someone, I guess it's different to know that you can't see someone even if you wanted to.

Well, that's all for now, I'm sure I'll be adding more very soon.
