am not sure how interested most of you are, but I got about 90% of the garage moved yesterday. Still a couple of things to go, but they can wait for the truck. I must have made 8 or 9 trips, filling the back of my car with boxes. It was kind of funny, as all of the boxes that belonged to me were about 10 times as heavy as Suz's. Mine had books in them, most of hers had craft stuff like yarn and fabric in them. Fortunately, I was smart enough to start with mine, and finish with hers. Tonight, I'll start grabbing boxes out of bedrooms and living rooms. I should make at least 2 trips each night, if not 3. This Friday I'm taking the day off, as the cable, phone and satellite folks are all coming, and I need to prepare for Sunday's final push, when I pick up the truck. I truly hope that by next Monday, I'll be pretty much done. This is a daunting task, and the weight on my shoulders is fairly heavy. I'll be looking forward to some friends coming over to help, though. It is my upbringing that is driving me to get as much as possible done before they show up.

There isn't much trickling around in my brain right now other than move related issues. I'll be relieved when this is over, so I can relax again. I'll probably want to lie around for a month, recovering :) I did take a few minutes last night to enjoy the outstanding CART race. Way to go, Michael Andretti!
