I bought moving supplies today… a cheap hand truck, bubble wrap, and packing paper.

The hand truck in particular will be useful as we go through the storage unit.  This, sadly, will not occur tomorrow as originally planned… it’s supposed to rain all day.

The packing has only just begun in earnest.  The plan is to use the guest room to stage boxes that are done.

We have already done most of the going-through-and-tossing last summer when we loaded up the storage unit. So this part shouldn’t be so bad — just the usual “Where is <item X>? I must have packed it already.”

Today I washed my car.  I don’t mean I took it to a carwash; I mean I got out a bucket and laid sponge to paint.

It’s amazing how much cleaner the car gets this way than in the touchless carwash.

This morning, as I attempted to leave our neighborhood, my progress was impeded by a roadblock…

… made up of 15-20 turkeys in the road.  By the time I got my camera out the way had cleared, leaving only this straggler.

OK, you may ask, why is Doug posting a picture of a toaster oven?

This toaster oven has spent the last 9 months in our basement.  Now that our house is no longer being shown, it — and other items of “clutter” — can be restored to their rightful places of usefulness.
