Gettin all packed up

We made some good headway over the weekend! We filtered out tons of paper garbage that we'd been carrying around with us... then we took a truck load of stuff to Goodwill! We got rid of 3 bags of clothes, two boxes of junk, a box of books and a bag of shoes! :) Yippee. One truckload of stuff we don't have to move! Every bit of space will count. We had the largest U-haul packed full on the way here. Luckily we haven't acquired too much since we've been here...

The packing is going a lot quicker this time around. I think we're more motivated to get back home than we were to get here in the first place! It feels damn good to be going back.

On our way back home

Well, it's official. We are headed back to Wisconsin.
In a way I'm a little sad and disappointed. But in reality I'm mostly relieved and glad.
So many times since our big move we've thought about what a mistake it was. The two trips we made back up to our house in Northern Wisconsin made us feel even more so.
Things just didn't work out well for us here. It was a challenge from the beginning. From moving issues to housing issues to job issues and family issues. It's been one hell of an experience. And I'm glad to be done with it.

Now, I just can't wait to get back home :) Of course we may be jobless, and that's somewhat daunting. There is at least one prospect out there, and we are really hoping that it works out! Otherwise, things may be a little on the bleak side for a while. But at least we will be in our own house. And be able to keep our dogs. And be able to once again enjoy our fenced-in yard. And all of the space we've been missing.

Well, here we go- packing madly once more. After just getting a lot more unpacked a few weeks ago! :)
