On the move

This weekend we are moving!! We'll still be in Tucson, but in an area referred to as the "Foothills"...named so because the area is much closer to the beautiful mountain range just north of Tucson. Because of the beautiful desert location, we'll share our surroundings with scorpions, rattlesnakes, coyotes, javelinas (stinky wild hogs), and bobcats--a threat I'm far more willing to deal with than the threat of gangs and break-ins at our current house. Last weekend we started packing for a June 12th move-in date, to keep a calm and steady pace. Then we looked up and realized we packed the entire house, and decided to change the move-in date to this Saturday. It's been a little hectic, but John is the perfect antidote for my anxiety. I'll get overwhelmed and panicked about how much there is to pack, and in the meantime John has packed the whole kitchen. In his efficiency, John even tried to pack Winston, who was less than amused.

Good luck with the move. Don't do too much! Relax.

This is my favorite sentence:
