never-ending cycle

This past week has been a blur of house-related activity. LOTS of painting - the office, kitchen, entryway, master bedroom, and half of the rec room are painted (yeah!!), which took the majority of every day since Sunday. As of tonight, we have purchased a washer/drier, a fridge, and a stove, all of which will be delivered this week. I have packed probably 75% of our belongings in boxes, and probably 50% of those belongings are in the house already. 

Tomorrow EARLY we are getting the fridge, then will be moving the bed and couch. This means (fingers crossed) that tomorrow night will be the first night we spend in the house!

C and his dad are out paying for the stove as I write this, so I'm blasting classic rock (CCR right now) and am packing what remains of our kitchen. It's getting tougher because all of the things that fit neatly have already been packed. Now it's down to all the odd-shaped left-overs... like the pointed glass drinking vessel and the large sword C brought back from Spain, and the various bowls, dishes and vases we received as wedding gifts. Ah well. 

On a different note, I have my first Law Review meeting on Sunday... which is when we get our first production assignment. I am supposed to have all my readings done by Sunday (I have done most of Con law, most of Evidence, none of Professionalism). I definitely need to schedule some dedicated book-time tomorrow... so much to do, so little time!

Starting to get stressed (already)... trying to breathe and remind myself that life is so much bigger than this moment, this day, this week... My friend told me to sing "just keep swimming... just keep swimming" from Finding Nemo... I think that will be my new mantra for the month :D

Swimming on,

K
