my reasoning

For not getting any work done these past two months.
So moving sucks, I admit I dislike it very much.
I like new places and moving furniture around but actual moving ....
I wish I could blink my eyes or snap my fingers and its just done for me.
This move was a bit different then our normal pcs move.
We got packed up last June, 6 people and a dog, 2200 sqft, 4 bdrms, office, dining rm, laundry rm, 2 story, hardwood and tile only, the works, our perfect home.
We get here and are in a temp duplex-3 bdrm, 1100 sqft, cream colored carpet, parking spot that we have to walk in the rain to get to the door.
2 people to a room, no one is too thrilled, the laundry room is a closet in the hall.
So the movers bring the trucks-yes trucks-2, the drivers look at us like we are crazy and say "all this isn't going to fit", really we knew this already.
We get our couches, dining table, beds, tv's, and pick through clothes and kitchen boxes. Everything else gets put under the covered back porch. The movers come to pick up everything again, 4 crates stuffed full.
6 months and a few days later hubby gets orders. Um... "I'm not moving by myself hun"
So he goes in and gets us pushed to the top of the list due to him leaving, yay a 4bdrm! Ok but still small, 1400 sqft, well small for all our crap, cream carpet again, hence why you see vinyl runners everywhere, yes I put vinyl down, 4 kids and a dog in Rainy Town WA.
Jan 18 we got our truck-Feb 15 I finally feel done enough to take pics.
So here you go, after 3 full van loads to the thrift shop, plenty of trash boxes, and multiple trips to the recycling center.

Our odd shaped livingroom

My down sized collection of niknaks and books

Super messy kitchen


Hall from main entrance, yes thats the laundry on the left

General hall connecting all bedrooms and 1 bath

Super messy boys room, A & J share

L's room, my favorite, and the cleanest most organized


C's room, yes he's sleeping at 11, ugg teens

Kids bathroom, the smallest ever

Oh no nevermind, mine is!

And last but not least, the office,




The new desk

Now to start on the office and then get back into sewing.
