Moving Day Has Arrived!
The house is sold! We close in 10 days. Mad crazy packing is ocurring in all rooms...

The kids are at Chuck-E-Cheese for the afternoon and with friends tonight... :applause:

And I've rented a cute little cape code for myself and for the kids (part time).

Now we need to move 12 years of a life together to 2 different places, and do it all today and tomorrow.

So please send your virtual lounge muscles my way, there are a LOT of boxes to move. :9

By the time I am done, I may have flvegan arms :rofl: (I can only hope...)

:hi:

1. Good luck RL!
I'm glad you're finally able to settle somewhere. Sending virtual Advil for your soon-to-be sore muscles.

:hug:

10. let the good times roll! -- er -- um well any way
good luck moving! -- it's fun once you get there -- all that barge toting and bail lifting is for the birds.

i feel a song coming on --

''Old man river -- He keeps on rolling --''

oh never mind -- i forgot myself.

13. are the books still there?

Congrats on getting the place sold and finding something new. Post pictures once you're settled in.

You can always tell him you didn't overpack, you just moved in...

22. I'm happy for you!
I'm guessing many of us wish we could come and help you move, if we didn't live so far away!

24. Retro, I'm so very happy for you.
I'd trade "arms" for happiness any day.

Besides, most of your lifting will be back-related, so now we're talking lats.
