I'm taking a very short break from everything I have to do today to pause and think about the implications of today, Friday the 18th of December. This week the movers finally came and took away all the things we had put aside for shipping and when they were done our voices echoed around the suddenly empty space. Since then I've been trying to get the apartment clean while packing up what we have left, going to work, and saying goodbye to friends. Yesterday Holly Hughson came and helped with the cleaning - she scrubbed the stove and oven, bless her! Last night we went out for dinner at Armadillos, our favourite Mexican restaurant, for the last time. Today is my last day at work and I have four hours to get all the last minute jobs done. When I finish work at noon I have to go home, finish packing, clean the bathroom (bleh) and shampoo all the carpets (bleh bleh) before we can finally try to fit all our stuff into the car and head down to Mom & Dad's.
So the upshot is that I think I'm going to be too busy today to really appreciate the fact that after two years, it's our last day in Angwin. It's been an amazing couple of years and I'm hoping to write a post on what it's meant to me - but today is not the day.
