So as most of you know, those that read a few blog posts ago, we have been doing a wee bit of moving in the past year or so. My sister and her family moved about 1 month and a half before we did and we got to be major players in the move. WE helped with their move and then turned around and did our own. This gets better... My parents decided after 19 1/2 years that they needed to move to a smaller place where they take care of the yard for them etc... Then we find out that Mark (my brother) is going to be moving in to my parents home. The best part is that my mom had major back surgery 3 weeks before she was scheduled to move, so she couldn't do any boxing or lifting or really much helping. So lets just say that I got to be a major player in that move too. My sister from New York was here for 10 days visiting, and needless to say most of her vacation was boxing up crap. Mark and Kristen were tons of help too. So I had my house only 3/4 unpacked and I am packing up their house. Then I got to help them move and then unpack. WE still have tons and tons to unpack but none of us are in any real hurry. I got to help with Mark's too but he had Kristen and her family to do lots of helping. All I have to say is that moving is for the BIRDS. Not recommended if not necessary. Don't do it!! Take my advice and stay away from it. I am really glad that my brother and his family live so close to me now and my parents are only about 1/2 mile away from where they used to live. It is really great. The process, not so great. All I have to say is that I am sick and tired of moving and if I see another moving box anytime soon, I may lose it!!

I don't know how you're doing it pregnant! I'm tired just from reading about your moves!
I hope you're feeling good!
It's too bad you hate moving so much. I wish I could have been there for more than just one day. 'cause I LOVE moving. I know, it's crazy, but after moving at least 13 times already it's become an addiction. I get an itch and just want to go again.
Jen! I am exhausted after reading this. I've always claimed to like moving, but I'm sure this could cure me of it. Yikes!! AND YOU'RE PREGNANT?!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am so happy for you and your family, I'll have to come see the new baby and new house all at once. Just wanted you to know I'm thinking about you today. I need your new address, let me know when you get a min. My email is katiemelo@gmail.com. Love ya! Have a great day!
