Almost there

This is it ... the last of it all goes today and we are in a hotel.  Fly out Sunday.  I cried a lot yesterday ... I think it finally hit me that we really are moving.  I cried and I lost the remote and the housekeys and my hubby has told me to sit in one place and he will take care of it all LOL.  I think he was afraid of what would vanish next.

When Will It Be Over

Truck shipped out last week and looks as if we struck it lucky ... it will arrive within a few days of us arriving on island.  Honestly thought it would take much much longer than that.  Now for the last and final step.  For those of who who don't realise it ... the military gives us a weight limit based on rank and marital staus.  We are eligible for 11000 pounds.  Sounds like a lot I know but when you think about it .. really it isn't.  We are a family of five LOL so I am making sure I go with my full entitlements on the plane ... 10 suitcases LOL two per person.  Now for those I have to be under 50pounds each ... more weight limits LOL.  I have to laugh or right now I would be crying LOL.  I have packed nine of the ten suitcases the movers come tomorrow to pack all our belongings and we are havng a party today .... can we say stressed beyond belief.  I think the phrase my DH has heard the most the last week is we came with 9100 pounds ... we aren't taking this this and this ... but we have bought this this and this LOL do you think we are going to be okay LOL.  Well after Tuesday it is going to be beyond my control I guess ... wish me luck.
