The move is upon us

About a month and counting until we are moving. It seems insignificant, since we are moving less than 5 minutes from our current place, however it has recently occured to me that moving is moving whether you are going 5 minutes or 15 hours away. So, I figure the best thing to do is to make a time line and a check list. To me it makes sense to save the kitchen for last as that is where the stuff that we use on a daily basis is - well the kitchen and the bathroom. But other than that - just getting started is half the battle. It the end it will be more than worth it - and as i told my hubby and my mom - I can't wait - the first thing I will do at the new house is run all my plates, silverware and glasses through the dishwasher - most of this stuff has never been anything but hand-washed and nothing sounds better (or cleaner) to me than a nice HOT pass through the dishwasher- it just seems so much cleaner than hand-washing. So if you have any advice or a desire to help - let me know - we'll sign you up for a shift - or 10 :)
