August is finally here and that means that moving month has arrived. It's been a long time since we visited Nova Scotia and purchased the house - in a way it feels almost too long, since we've been in a virtual limbo ever since. The packing has begun in earnest, with 10 boxes packed already and approximately 55 more to go. I've found that using my art and computer books as packing material has helped spread the load and reduce the need for crumpled newspaper and folded cardboard. It also means that there aren't going to be 3 or 4 heavy boxes of books, just 10 heavier boxes of other stuff.
We've had the House Closing Party, and now we're trying to get in all of the visits to people that we haven't been able to connect with properly over the last months. With a move of this distance we're not sure when we're going to have the chance to see some of you over the next few years. With relatives coming to visit from Scotland this weekend it makes the job even more difficult, so please don't be offended if we aren't able to get together - we are thinking of you.
