SHEDDING

Tuesday, April 04, 2006

So now that we have bought a house, and we officially sell our house in Lisle in 16 days, it's time to refocus on yet another move.

All of our furniture and household goods that did not come to the apartment in the last move -- which is a substantial amount -- have to be either sold or moved within a couple weeks. So we're quite active on ebay and craigslist, shedding some items that just don't seem to have a place in our new place.

It's not sad, but it is sort of strange selling things that are a couple thousand miles away. When someone asks a question, it's impossible to go and look at the items! Doing it all from memory and photos.

I still can't believe that in just a couple weeks, the house we built at the beginning of our marriage, will belong to some stranger. Feels weird.... and maybe it always will, to some degree. The saving grace is knowing where we will be going, and being excited about that place.
