Errands, Shelving and Yetis, Oh My!

Ahh...my to-do list...it Just. Won't. Die.

There are so many things which must be done before we are able to leave Austin, and nowhere near enough hours in each day to accomplish them.
Title, register and inspect the RV... replace hoses...ship packages...stock the fridge...build an herbal first aid kit...donate some more stuff....and on and on...

We spent the day running errands, and I swear, somehow the list grew!

Tomorrow we head out to our new RV park, and with any luck it will have some grass for the kids to play in! They've been such troopers; dealing with all the craziness that is trying to get ready to go. Who thought simplifying would be so complicated ;-)

One day soon we will get to bed before midnight and it will be so sweet!
For right now, we remind ourselves why we're working so hard and try to shower each other with love and support through the difficulties of this transition.

On the up side...after about 16 hours at the Container Store, and 16 more hours sorting, our clothes are finally stacked neatly and accessibly in our little closet!
Yay!!

Tomorrow I will tell you what it's like to live in 200 square feet with two kids and two yetis, but for now, it's off to bed for me!

I can understand the growing list thing as it happens to us all of the time! :) This will all be so worth it when you are able to finally cross your list off and get out on the open road. We can't wait to hear of your adventures coming up and wish you safe and happy travels!! Vicki

Hi guys, just wanted to let you know that we've been following your blog for a few weeks and we plan to hit the road this fall. I understand all your stress and anxiety and hopes and dreams! We are looking forward to and overwhelmed w/our big sale next weekend! I ditto all of your desires for your family, as we have a 3 yr old son, and want him to experience life. What comes with that is swarms of questions and negativity from our family, but we understand their desires for our protection. I just wish you all the best and will keep up w/you guys. I just started a blog at http://searchingtheway.wordpress.com/ and hope to chronicle our progress! Many blessings to you.......Kim
