Back from a crazy roadtrip vacation in 10 days. I want to do a few vacation posts, but won't have time until probably tomorrow. So look forward to some of our adventures. We took a gazillion pictures (oh, not a gazillion, it sure seemed like it), visited four cities, took in many many sites, had some fun, experienced beautiful weather, ate some great food. Overall, I would say that this vacation was a resounding success. ...

And getting moving on moving. At this point we are ~3 weeks away from moving to San Jose, CA from Omaha, NE. I am a bit stressed at this point. We have a house full of things with real furniture. We are hiring a moving company to take care of the furniture, truck packing, ad unloading. But that still leaves us to pack all of the "stuff." And "stuff" we have. Thankfully, we've already started purging, putting things in trash pile, Goodwill pile, Craigslist pile, and friends pile. Progress is slow by steady. Adding to all this moving fun is the fact that get to do most of it on my own starting tomorrow. J is flying out to start work and find us a place to live. He won't be back in NE until the 22nd. So it will be me, in a house full of stuff, boxing said stuff, and attempting to wrap up things on this end. Oh so much fun... If no one hears from me in a few days, please try and find me. I may have gotten lost amongst the boxes.
