New house, lots of boxes!


So, we finally moved into our new home in Blue Springs, MO.  The movers came a day late, but all is well and we are trying to dig out from under all the boxes!

Below are photos from the basement, which will someday be transformed into my studio!  I felt really sorry for all the boxes that the movers had to carry down there!  But, they were great, and didn't mind a bit.



And, would you believe  - there is a full kitchen in the basement!  No bathroom, though.  I just might to try to teach some classes down here.  We'll see if I can ever get it going.  I'll post again when I have it all set up.

The Holding Room

Since my last post, I've been working like a mad woman - the first thing I did was to totally clean out and pack the studio.  Once it was empty, I started bringing in all the boxes that I packed, and before long, this is what it looks like!

I still have quite a few boxes to fill - and then the packers come to pack all my breakables on Monday, and on Tuesday the movers come!!  We'll be out of here sometime Tuesday afternoon - then the kitties and I will be on a plane on Wednesday (with my good friend, Donna) headed for Kansas City!

Soon, I will have the great pleasure of UNPACKING all these boxes and try to find places for everything to go!  Fun times!

Oh, do I hate packing!


Yes, I knew these days would come -- but that doesn't make it any easier!  The photos for today show what has been packed (so far) from the studio!  And, that was after purging before listing the house!  I have way too much STUFF!  But, I can't seem to let go of much of it!

And, I'm not finished in the studio yet!  There are still a bunch of odds and ends - plus everything that is in the closet - that's mainly sewing stuff and things that have no other place to be.

So, my goal is to have that room emptied, scrubbed and cleaned, and ready to be moved by Friday!  Then, I have to start on the rest of the house! Trust me, it's not as bad (except for the garage)! 15 days till Closing - 21 days to move!  Will she make it?!
