down to the wire

Just over 24 hours until Alex and I get on an airplane headed west.

We’ve got our temporary housing assignment—we’ll be at an apartment complex called “The Seasons” near Bellevue Square, in a 2-bedroom penthouse apartment with a view of the lake. (They were very apologetic about the fact that no 3-bedrooms were available, but what we’re getting sounds lovely.)

Best way to reach me will continue to be via cell phone—I’ll be keeping my Rochester cell number while in Seattle.

Weez and Sally helped me pack boxes yesterday, and Eric helped Gerald move the old washing machine out of the basement. Today is suitcase-packing and kids-room-cleaning day. Got the windshield fixed on my car yesterday, and sold it to a friend today, and she’ll pick it up tomorrow—one less thing to worry about. Friends have picked through the unsold garage-sale goods and taken the best of the lot home with them. VOA will pick up what’s left sometime next week. Alex is having his friends over this afternoon for a going-away swim party, after which he’s going to a friend’s birthday party—all in all, a good note for him to leave town on. And I’m doing pretty well. I feel as though I should be more stressed than I am—it probably helps that I know that whatever I don’t get done in the next day Gerald will have a week to finish up.

Expect more blogging once we get to Seattle, and lots of Flickr photos as we explore our new home.

See you on the other side…
