TGIF, there are only two more working days until Monday.  Tuesday is really coming on fast.  We still have moving to do.  Boxes to pack and stack.  Details to attend to.  I have to fight to stay focused if this going to go well.  Additionally, I have to stay on top of business matters and make sure I do my schoolwork too.  Other than that, it's a breeze.

Yesterday we had a lovely visit from a couple of our friends.  We really enjoyed them dropping by.  We were able to have a good visit and they provided an excuse for us to take a break.

I spent most of my day digging out what once was my office.  Over the last few years it has become the place where things go when you just don't want to deal with them.  It got so bad that you couldn't walk in without moving something out of your way.  Anyway it's almost empty now.  I found a lot of pictures that I haven't seen in years.  Being the sentimental slob that I am, it was really tough to not get bogged down looking at pictures and reminiscing.  I unearthed stuff that I had forgotten I ever had.

Moving the big pieces is relatively easy.  You just have to deal with their weight and bulky nature.  What's tough is all the minutia.  The little things that don't really doesn't matter that much, but I've been dragging it around for so long I hesitate to just pitch it.  An interesting quote scribbled on a slip of paper.  I uncovered a whole drawer full of prehistoric pens and pencils.  They go all the way back to grade school.  Who keeps this stuff!  I guess I just have bad case of the hoarder gene.  I got it from my family.  It's all their fault.

Got word last night that Tony & Meagan will be dropping in from Walla Walla today.  It's a nice surprise, but the house is kind of a mess.  I hope the kids brought their swim suits.

By the way, it another one of those days we wait for all year long.  It's gloriously beautiful.  Turn off your computer and go get some of it.  That's what I'm gonna do.
