We’re moving into a new home in about a month. Between that, work, a wedding I’m shooting, another shoot, moving, packing, hauling boxes to storage, packing, packing, throwing away stuff, work, packing, more throwing away stuff, not sleeping, more packing and more hauling, well, it’s going to be a crazy month.
In the end it will be worth it, but right now it is just sleeplessness and nausea-inducing.
Good Luck dear Carissa, I wished I could help you 🙂 It is the most stressful thing to move. Thanks and Love, nia

Good luck in the new abode! They say that moving home is one of the most stressful times in our life times. …….so all the very best and remember ‘it will all get done in the end – even if at times you will wonder!’

Un déménagement est une bonne occasion pour classer et mettre de l’ordre. Je connais ça. On garde beaucoup trop de “ça peut toujours servir”!

This time I needed Google Translate : A move is a good opportunity to organize and bring order. I know that. We care too much “it can still be used!”
Indeed! We plan on lightening our load with this move. 🙂

Buddy and the animals are in for a whole new lifestyle.
I know you must all be feeling at the end of your tethers? But if it is where you feel the next chapter in your life begins, then that’s fantastic!
Best of luck to you all. Try hard to get some rest if you can Carissa, it’s such a stressful event. But, once you are home…….it’s soooo worth it!

Thanks, Bob, We are in good hands on the professional side – and they are pretty good at talking me off the ledge. And friends and blogging buddies have been incredibly supportive too. 🙂

Here’s a random question. Is this house on Mount Rose street? My aunt lives next door. 🙂

No. In Sparks.

OK — because that was just going to be too weird. 🙂 Congrats!

What is weird is this house is two cul de sacs from my husband’s parents’ former home and the exact same floor plan (just reversed!). Bigger back yard though.

Looks like a great home, and everyone is right. It’s worth it, and I’m so glad you have a professional to help you. We did the whole thing ourselves the last time and that’s the last time we’ll do that. The throwing stuff away or giving it away is really worth it. Good luck!

Rita, when I say professionals, I don’t mean movers. I mean the people who are taking care of all the paperwork for the sale. The logistics of that are going to be fun as both closes basically happen at the same time. And our buyer has his stuff on the way and is anxious to move in as soon a humanly possible.
We will still be relying on the kindness of family and friends for the actual grunt work of the move.

Uh-oh. Oh well, I know you’ve got lots of family and friends who will help out. Maybe just have a keg on hand to keep them going? A pro for the paper work is smart too, although we did one of them ourselves, with advice, and that worked too.

I love your new place, the cute little porch and the windows are lovely. Can you put a window seat on that bay window? The stone work is lovely too, no wonder you fell in love at first sight. Is it close to where you are living now?

Not at all close, but much, much closer to where we work. We will reduce our commute time by 50 miles each way.
