Moving

I've never actually experienced the whole professional movers scenario. I think it's something that I could really enjoy! :) Devin and I have spent the past few weeks preparing just for this day...when the movers would come! We've categorized everything, and tried to make things easier for them. I think the nicest thing about movers is the fact that they aren't partial to any of our stuff! So, they don't spend hours agonizing over which box to put certain things in...they just pack it all in. The don't stop for a jaunt down memory lane for a few minutes (or hours...) when they find some random memorabilia...they just pack it all in. Make a box--throw stuff in--tape it up--write on it--set it aside--do it again! Kind of nice! And another nice thing is having friends take Josh and Claire. I know that if they were still here, two things would happen: Josh would want to help...and he'd melt into a little purple puddle when they told him no (which they would, because of insurance); and Claire would cry because they were putting her stuff in boxes. She really would flip out. They are both going to do that when they get home, but it will be on a much smaller scale, and for a much shorter duration of time. :)
