cabin fever

I wish I could find my camera right now....there are photo opportunities all around me. Boxes are stacked 3 and 4 high. Why I'm not filling more is a good question. If I would know where my camera is right now I would take pictures of all the piles...to remember why we should NEVER move again. I would take pictures of our little children sleeping soundly in the loft all stacked neatly side by side in the loft.....for one last night. I would take pictures of our cozy little bathroom...to remind myself of days when all 6 of us needed to be in the 7 X 5 foot space together. I would take a picture of the coats all hanging behind the kitchen table. That fall to the floor at least once a day when someone walks by....to remind myself of how nice it will be to have a closet for coats once again. I would also fondly take a picture of the kitchen sink and little itty counter top...to remind myself to never complain when I tire of emptying my brand spankin' new dishwasher. There are so many memories of this little cabin by the lake, and oh so sweet to have such an opportunity as this. But I shall be utterly gitty for the rest of my life to not be in such tight quarters with the ones I love.

Tomorrow is M day. As in moving. Who knows how long before we'll have Internet again.....and when we do get back in sync I'm sure I should probably be unpacking boxes, wrapping Christmas gifts, or making Christmas goodies. Speaking of unpacking....I probably should finish packing so we can unpack them in the days to come.

Love, Heather

I wish you could find your camera too! Then we could see all your perfectly artsy lettering on all your neatly ordered and arranged boxes. I have a hard time believing it's the chaos you describe. You are such a good organizer. ( : Happy moving!!
