• We have moved out! It is done, finished, finally ooover!

  No more moving left to do! Katrina did a great majority of the work over the last few days- getting the knick-nacks, shelves, and other daily items moved over. Wow, we have a lot of clutter to go through! I wonder if we might not just put some of the less essential (or more storage item things) back into a box!! After all, there are some things that are just worth saving for personal value. Other things we will eventually use (like, say, a deep-fryer) but we do not have the money to just say “well, we have not used it in a while so let’s toss it” then buy one again later. We have to balance- we should not hoard, but we should not waste either.

  I got four hours of sleep last night due to moving. As of this morning, our apartment is vacated. We are done.

  Part of me is a little nervous still. We’re done, we’re out- but if Pat tries to say “well, you aren’t getting your deposite back- so, that means if there is anything that isn’t done and I need to pay for it, you get the bill”… well, at this point, we’ll go to mediation. As believers we will NOT bring another believer (especially one in our own church) to court in any way. So, we’ll have our Church mediate. Heck, the Church has offered to help- we might even see if they will come over and fix the problem. They have been SUCH a blessing- they have not done a thing, but the fact they were willing to send a team of people over Monday morning to move stuff for us was in and of itself a wonderful thing.

  Now, comes my part- getting some heavy work done! First, though, I need to refresh my body with necessary sleep.
