I've been working away on the house stuff...sorting out things I want to take with me from the things I really don't need and would rather not pay to move. I've gotten rid of sooooooo much stuff it's unreal.

Lips, if you're planning on a big out-of-state move, I'd recommend calling movers now. They'll come do a walk through of your house and give you a detailed estimate for free. I'd also recommend looking at the big name, reputable companies....in my research I came across an absolute ton of horror stories with people getting ripped off. I'd rather pay a little more and actually get my stuff there. The advantage of getting the estimates also is that it can help you decide whether you want to do some pruning of stuff (like I am) or not. For example, I am a big reader and literally had 6 bookcases, each 6 feet tall and 3 feet wide, stuffed with books. That costs a TON to move, because books are heavy. I decided to donate my books to a library in a poor part of town...they'll put some in circulation and sell others at their annual book sale to raise money. With the money I save from moving them, I'll get a kindle...and have less to dust.

Alright everyone...I better get to work. Hope you all have a great day!

to you baby....
Jo start calling movers now?? Oh Brock tried to call the internship place but no answer no one picks up the phone so I sent an email instead. Well there not paying me so I really don't have to worry about not losing my job now do I i WILL look into movers on the web and big named ones at that. Thanks for the tip. Yes I want to start pruning as soon as possible want to be out of here before winter starts.
