The Project

How do people do it?

Do they hire movers, have lots of friends, have extra time to spend, or just have flexibility?

The truck is half unpacked – all I could do late last night without help in the occasional lite rain.

The floors where furniture will go are washed, and alcohol wipes made the toiletries approachable.

(The shower afterwards was hot, the water soft and full, and the tub and walls are repaired without massave rot, mold, and crumbling apart!)

But, I had to call in to keep the truck yet another day because, like it or not, I needed to rest before moving the heavier things with my youngest.

We both worked all night until 6am this morning.

How is it that I thought two hours of sleep following could possibly rejuvenate, as I stretch my sleeping muscles warning me to be careful?

I must try to sleep some more, and chase away the work-I’ve-missed worries.

I’m in the eye of the storm, now – there’s no escape until the tasks are accomplished and the winds of change transfer us completely over.
