Things are Getting Real

Phew. Ok, so we just came through a really busy week. I think it will continue to roll with ups and downs going forward. The busy week came from a confirmation on the moving date from SF. That meant that we could buy flights from SFO->BOS. We also purchased our flights from BOS->HAM and while I was at it planned a multi-stop East coast trip in October to NYC and DC.

We leave SF for "good" (for now anyway, we have no idea what the future holds) on Tuesday September 29th on the red eye. The cat is so excited, let me tell you! Now I'm looking at that date and counting back to make sure we fit in everything else we need to do before then.

Things that are moving forward well:

• all plane tickets have been purchased + cat on board confirmed
• selling of items is moving along 
• opening new bank accounts and moving money around
• informed landlady we were moving out and she thinks it's exciting

Things that have not been moving forward:

• still in process of getting the car title from MA (shakes fist at RFCU and MA RMV)
• learned a lot about how to get a cat to Europe and found out she had fleas and herpes on the way
• no one wants us for a month with a cat in Hamburg :( - we need one month of temporary housing while apartment searching
• moving company is still not being good about communicating

Big things for us coming up are Outside Lands this weekend, I'm having my Lasik re-done in one eye next week and then Alaska in about 2 weeks! Holy cow. Maybe I'll have some photos to share instead of just words! 

Here's a cute photo just because:
