In one week from this moment, we will be sitting in our lawyers office signing our life away. I can’t believe our closing is just one week away. We packed a couple of more boxes and it hit me – we have so much stuff. It’s overwhelming. It feels like the more we pack, the more there is to pack.

We’ll just continue packing all week and spend most of this weekend packing as well. I also need to finalize our moving plan and how many are helping. People have been so generous with their time and are willing to help paint and move. We have a great support system.

And I need to come up with two recipes this week so that next week we can focus on painting and driving back and forth between the apartment and the house!
