Quick inventory

[unicornduke]

I have done a quick inventory and the only things I will need physical help moving are: 

• bed, box spring
• big book shelf
• desk
• big squashy chair
• loom
• chest freezer

And those are because they are large and awkward, not heavy. I think I've actually done some myself like the bed and box spring. I think I could probably get everything but the loom in my truck in one go but I'm contemplating the number of other small pieces of furniture to move and I think a uhaul will be in order. I've got multiple small shelves, two coffee tables (both with glass parts), three large spinning wheels, a small table, chest freezer, etc. It's just too much for three truck trips. When I moved all my stuff into storage, it was probably 5-6 trips although I didn't pack the truck super full. I need to keep reminding myself that I have more belongings now. Stuff really does expand to fill a space.

I have made a wall of boxes around my crafting area which amuses me. My little crafting fort.

On our farm call this morning, my parents agreed that June would be a reasonable timeline to have themselves and the majority of their belongings moved into the parsonage. Dad said he wanted to come up with a different name for that house because parsonage was too long to type haha. Current house is now the farm house which I will be living in.

If all goes well with signing things this week *knocks wood*, my trip down there will be tearing up the parsonage floors and laying vinyl planking since I have experience with that since I did our living room here. The hardest part will be my mom making a decision on what flooring to buy but we've got a deadline if they want me to help with it that trip.

I made risotto for dinner and then cinnamon rolls which are really really tasty but I forgot how freaking sweet cinnamon rolls are and most of them will be going to the freezer.

Yay for proceeding apace!

And, yeah, stuff expands. And just because one can do the thing does not automatically render this advisable.

But it was a Tool! Tools are sacred. Right?
This is why my shop has been reorganized, the barn interiors renovated, Tractor storage areas created - and my bedroom here in Ukiah, which had the vinyl wallpaper (don't ask, it was hideous) stripped off 15+ years ago; has not yet been painted.

the tools! I've struggled a bit with continuing to work on projects this last year, haven't really had the energy but I've been more energetic lately and going to wrap a few small projects up before I leave and take all my tools with me.

Timelines and stuff quantities aren't adding up, so uhaul it is. Probably just the smallest one though, it's not that much more stuff.
