Moving Madness

The time is getting closer and closer. 20 days until the movers come. And I'm feeling all angsty about it. It is too soon, I am stressing out over it, there is not enough time to get everything done, and yet I wish they would hurry up already. My space is trashed, what with boxes and lists and inventories and papers all over the place. I can't tell which way is up anymore.

Originally, Kelli was supposed to move into the house when I left, and I would be leaving furniture and such. But that is not happening now. So I need to plan in the fun of a yard sale. (fun=Amy being sarcastic. Yard sales should DIE. ) In the end I think it will work out better, but it is one more list to write and one more thing to do.

One of the daunting, tedious tasks that I must do is inventory every single book that I have chosen to take with me for the insurance company. I keep putting it off. I made it through 3 boxes and have 4 more to go. Stephen, being so wonderful, found me a program that uses my web cam to read bar codes, and input each book directly into a database on the computer. He has a program like this on his computer, which works great. But he has a Mac. The program for Windows that he found for me doesn't work on mine. So he is chortling and happily inputting every book, CD, DVD, and computer game he owns onto his computer. I'm writing book titles by hand. (Little does he know that his fun has only just begun... because all of these books will need to be added to his list when they arrive there, and since he has /such/ a good time doing it...)

As of yesterday I am finished with my summer Calculus class. I think it has been my favourite math class thus far. I am a tad sad that it is my last one. I think I ended up with a B in the class... but I won't know for sure until the 6th. Next week I start BACK to school, for the last class of my career at NMSU. Spanish. Not even intermediate Spanish. Basic. I wanted easy to go with my stress level. If I get a bit of vocabulary and some practice conjugating verbs, then I will be content.

20 days seems like forever... and tomorrow.
