Or make that, Moving Weekend
Yep. Today Mary moves in officially. Of course, she really moved in officially last weekend when her cat came up (home is where the cat is, right?), but why quibble?
Her entire nukular family is up for the weekend (or a shifted variant of it, at any rate) to assist with the move.
It's going to involve 4 car rides, a truck, a uhaul trailer, a forklift and several industrial-scale devices on-loan from the Big Dig.
Hopefully we can knock it all off in the two days allotted, and even have some time left to relax in there somewhere.
It's going to be pretty cool, though, once it's all done, both because all the heavy-lifting will be done and because that means we'll officially be co-habitating.
Yes, co-habitating.
Your humble scribe will soon be one half of a two-headed (though only one bears decision-making powers), 8-limbed entity known as "the live-together couple" (live-together couple powers, activate!)
If this were a movie, we'd be at the point where you step back from the action a bit and have the narrator make some deep pronouncement like, "And thus does a new chapter begin in our saga" or "And that is when the horror began... the horror... the horror"
And is it bad that my back already hurts, and I haven't even begun my share of the lifting?
Yeah, I'm old...
