Dear Reader,
Yours truly + our fabulous husband are moving to a new home several hours away.
There is Much To Do, as you know. We’ve been packing, and how did we end up with so much stuff? We’ve also been doing the usual Organizing, Notifying, and Fretting (e.g. wrapping our Criterion Blu-rays in protective layers, as though they were Fabergé eggs).
Because this venture requires our Full Attention, we’re taking a blogging break until early April. However, we plan to stop by your site in the next couple of weeks to say a quick Hello.
Until then, see you in April!
“wrapping our Criterion Blu-rays in protective layers, as though they were Fabergé eggs…” I felt that. Safe travels and good luck!

Well, they are more valuable than Faberge eggs…..
Congratulations! Good luck and safe travels! It sounds like you’ve got things under control. Hubby and I did this move 3 years ago…..let’s just say I feel your pain. 😉 So. Much. Stuff. Thinking of you 😊

Thanks, Sarah. Even after purging closets and drawers, it’s still a challenge. But the payoff will be worth it!

Taking a break is a great idea during a stressful time. And moving is, of course, stressful, even if it’s a great move.
Enjoy your break. And good luck with the move! 🙂

Thanks, Debbi. I have mixed feelings about the move, because I’ll miss some dear friends. But new opportunity awaits, and for that I’m excited.

When my sister moved in January a few years ago, we had to buy chains for the U-Haul truck. When it gets bad, remember, it could always be worse! 😉

You said it. I used to have a rule: If I bought a book, I had to donate a book. But I abandoned that rule years ago, and now, sadly, I have to make some tough choices.
