Weekend Moving Diary

This weekend we are making lists of what's to come for the week.
It's the first of many big weeks we will have over the next 3 months!
Saturday we said goodbye to our lamps (220V) from Ikea and a yard sale. We loved those lamps and hated to see them go, but, we can't bring them. We also said goodbye to our coffee machine. We made a big effort in finding that machine.
I also met up with a good friend Saturday from the old days. I love her. She's known me through all my craziness and stayed true. It's hard finding a friend who doesn't judge you based on your past or bring it up whenever. She left when her little man was just a teeny. It's like the time didn't pass. I ran to him, picked him up and spun him around. I love kids lol.
Today we are organizing the last the stuff that we must throw out/giveaway and cleaning the car. It's neat and sad to see everything steadily disappear. The kids are becoming super sentimental as well.
We went to my husband's farewell picnic. It was really nice. I am not really in the 'milspouse' community. I prefer to keep to myself. I am all about a drama free life. However that all may change soon. Sigh. So I gotta suck it up and be a good spouse and most of all continue to be myself. I hate being in situations where I must be fake, but who says I have to be. My friend told me the sweetest thing yesterday. Sometimes it takes someone else to say it for you to realize it yourself.
Today's plan is to clean and organize. I have to figure out what clothes we're shipping. It will not be a lot. We also figured we'd buy clothes en route as well. So it may be more than we expected.
Off topic: As my 30th birthday is approaching, for some reason I've really gotten into makeup but also skin care. If you'd like to see a haul post let me know. I'd also like to do one grocery haul. We will be home 1 full week of the 4 weeks we have left. OMG we will be gone in 30 freaking days. #treasuringeverymoment
