We Moved!

For the summer, Wesley will work at a national lab (hurray!) doing biomass-energy-stuffIdon'tcompletelyunderstand....He was offered a few jobs the first Thursday of the month and by the next Thursday we'd sold a few things, packed over 12 boxes and bags of books (according to moving companies we're competing with people who have 5 bedroom homes!), heaved the recumbent bike and bookshelves and bed in a truck--and now we're in Idaho. For about ten weeks. My sister gets married August 5; by August 10 we'll be on our way to Texas.

Since moving, I've determined that we can let go of most of our stuff. I knew as soon as I flinched at our bike going up the cement stairs that I might be more attached to physical things than I should be. I don't want my focus to be on stuff. I don't want Levi's focus to be on stuff. As a result of being tired of packing and unpacking and this realization that I need a change, we're selling our washer and dryer, bike, bookshelves, etc. If you're desirous of any of our junk, just say.

And yes, I've debated about the books. We've only unpacked three boxes for the summer. I think they're coming with us, though.
