I promise to announce the winner of the contest as soon as Sue and I are in the same room, awake, for more than a few minutes. I decided that I like them all and think she can be a fairer judge. Besides.. as a 5th grade teacher she knows what is really funny after listening to comments all day long.

Did not get any packing done last nite. Sue was the good one and got the liquor packed. Went out to dinner and a movie with a friend. I hate missing time out with her. But this means no packing for me, and no knitting. I just have not gone anywhere since I hit the intarsia snag. There is a glove in my backpack, mocking me as I type. I don't care about it too much as I plan on knitting and quilting alot from the 23rd to the 27th. I finished a brit mystery novel and went to bed early-ish.

The cat has been in a state ever since the boxes started multiplying. We took down the dinner table to have room for piled boxes. This was her final straw. She seems to think we are leaving her behind. Before the table went down she was all.. ooh boxes to hide in, bookshelves I can sit in. Now she is all. EX-CUSE ME! A-hem. I am still HERE and you are NOT leaving me in this mess. Overall I think this move will be ok. But I still ahve not decided when to bring her over to the new place. Moving her is its own ordeal.

Tried holiday shopping today. It didn't work. I have no energy to figure out the things that I need to get bought. I am a slacker extraordinaire.

Packed the liquor? I usually just drink it all so I don't have to move it. Of course afterwards I can't move at all...

slacker???
I think you've been doing quite a lot lady. You deserve some time off.

Trevor does that... it's strange, as much as I've moved, you'd think he'd be used to it. But he gets inside every box and gets very jittery when I'm packing. Aslan was his normal laid back cool self (I can literally vaccuum around this cat without a flinch) when we moved from NY, but I do believe he was actually left behind in a move from a past owner, because when I had everything in the car, and went down to get the car ready for the cats, leaving them behind in an empty apartment, he started screaming at the top of his lungs.... it was heartbreaking, but he calmed down with a little cuddling.
