Amazingly, our two ace movers (my boyfriend and myself) accomplished a ton today, despite numerous interruptions to the schedule and with the help of one very patient young man! We are totally exhausted, and the house is a wreck of boxes and miscellaneous household junk from my 13 years on island, actually, from my whole life, as I brought many things from my high school and college days with me when I arrived as a 22 year old youngster, but it’s here, or the majority of it at least. The boys and I had a few appointments today, so between Sunday School, the Boy Scout Space Derby, and a sleep over for my oldest son at his friend’s house, we somehow moved pretty much all the big and important stuff. Then, we rewarded the little one with a new Wii game and a movie to watch for being so good about riding back and forth from the house to the BQ and waiting outside while we hauled more stuff down. He loves to help and carried what he could from the bottom of the BQ steps to the truck, but most things were way too big for him. I was, however, very impressed with how well he handled it all as it was not necessarily a fun day for a 7 year old. So, now it’s time for a little relaxation and playing games with the boys before crashing into bed. I will go ahead and rent another truck for tomorrow morning and try to load up some things before my boyfriend has to catch a flight back to work and before my little boys get done with hip-hop class, but for now, I’m so glad it’s finally all coming together. Time to sleep...
