Well, this is it.  I’m shutting down this computer.  I’m moving all my files to a jump drive.  I’m burning all my music onto CD.

This is, obviously, the final step.

The U-haul is loaded.  Fully packed.  Done.

The house is… mostly clean.  Still a few projects.  But basically, we’re done.

Tomorrow we drive to our halfway mark.  The next day, around midday, we arrive at our new house.

I can hardly believe it.

For those of you who have been reading my blog for a while, you know that I’ve been in limbo for a very, very long time.   In fact, I started blogging in March of ‘07 from my Mother-in-law’s basement, where I was living while I was trying to figure out the next step in my housing issues.

It’s almost over.

Of course, it’s not over yet.  Two more days.  Two more painful, exhausting days.  And then?  Well, then there’s the unpacking.  But I’m not thinking about that yet.  Nope.  I’m only thinking about my pretty new house.

Mine.

What does this mean for us?  For you and me?  Well, it means that I will be offline for a bit.  Who knows how long.  Once we’re moved in, we’ll have to get a wireless connection set up.  Who knows when that will actually happen.  So, if you don’t hear from me, don’t fret.  Don’t scream.  Don’t think that the U-haul tipped over somewhere in the tippy tops of the Rocky Mountains and that I’m stranded.  While that would make for a better blog-post, I assure you that it will not be the reason for my absence.

In the meantime, remain merry.  I can’t wait to catch up on your lives.  When I’m settled and up and running, you’ll be the first to know.

I promise.

We’re almost there.
