Pack and stack...(cross-posted)

As of late my nights have been spent packing boxes. Some nights I may only get three boxes packed but only because I diligently wrapped ever so carefully my china or crystals.

Last night I got about four boxes done but I didn't feel like I put a dent into all of the packing that needs to be done. However, I didn't sit down until around 10 something last night and when I finally did I was surprised to see it was already past 10.

We close on the house in eight days. As we get closer to the date my feelings keep fluctuating between excitement and panic. I have started questioning myself if this is going to be the right thing for the hubby and I. I start to panic that maybe this isn't the right thing for us and why would we want to pay double of what we pay for rent. I have all these thoughts swirling around my head. I have been assured by friends who have gone through all of this that it's very normal to feel this way. I'm thankful for the patience of my friends who take the time to soothe my nerves and allow me the little freak outs. Heh.

I cannot wait to get the keys and have a look around at my new home in all of its vacant glory.

I didn't know you had been updating so much or I would have checked in sooner! I share your feelings of anxiety, but mostly because we are wondering if we'll have enough days to actually move after we close and before we're evicted. We close on a Wed (hopefully--cross your fingers) and our lease is up Friday... Also, I will miss our prime location, but not the sound of late night chickyboom music in the shell parking lot. South side here we come!
