Are we going somewhere?

(from the jojos archive)

I'm having trouble facing the fact that we are moving in 9 days. Is has been made easier to ignore because we are not packing. We have decided to have the movers come and pack for us. So on Thursday the 28th the contents of our house will be packed into boxes by strangers, loaded onto a truck and driven away. We will clean up a bit behind them, wait until Aiden's bedtime and then start driving. It's going to be an emotional day. There's nothing quite as weird as your house totally empty. We're leaving our first house, our friends, and a town we have called home for five years. Five years is as long as I have lived anywhere (well, six years in Fargo- but I was anxious to leave there) and although I'm sure we are making the right choice in moving, its going to be hard. There are about 6 people I've said I want to have lunch with before I go and I'm afraid its just not going to happen. Thanks to everyone who came to our farewell party! I have rubber burn on my hip from the moonwalk, so you know I had fun.
