Y'all.
The packers are coming. TOMORROW.
(Insert primal scream here.)
I'm here to tell you, the day before the packers come is the worst of all. Everywhere I look I see 5 things that need to be done. And I just marched out to the garage and informed my husband that the next time we move, the kids and I are leaving 2 weeks early and he is doing it ALL himeself. He has gotten all wrapped in a a trailer he bought at the last minute, then he's helping a neighbor with trailer and he is not here in the house to do the 5 million things I need done. This is what happened last time, only he was stuck at work. So that's it. I'm tired of doing the moving myself. And yes, I am kind of kidding here. But only kind of.
Our travel plans have changed yet again, but I am not even going to get into that. We're making a stop before we head to Florida and we bumped the flight back one more day.
But oh! I am so distracted I can't even keep a thought in my head. I meant to say right off - our visas are here!!! Yay! That is a huge relief. I was envisioning them not being here when we left and having to keep postposing everything and it's just all good that they are here. Whew.
Oh! I finished the Klaralund Noro Sweater! I had the best of intentions to take a photo for you, but that did not happen. It's totally too hot to put on a sweater anyway, even just for a quick photo. So picture this:
Only about one inch longer and all the tails woven in and that rogue dropped stitch fixed and looking gorgeous on me. When I unpack and reblock it in about 3 months, I'll do a bunch of pictures for you.
Okay, I have to get back to freaking out and worrying that something important is going to get packed or not get packed. But let me leave you with this video that provided me with a much needed stress relieving barrel of laughs today. I know a lot of you don't click on videos from blogs, but really, I think you'll like this one. I am too frazzled to figure out how to embed a video here, so just click the linky.

Earlier tonight I was proofreading a Guide to Moving for my husband and I thought of you. Good luck tomorrow!

That link to "Total Eclipse" was hysterical. Couldn't stop laughing!

Dude, that sweater is amazing. I can't believe you had time to finish it! Good luck with everything and remember to breathe.

That is one gorgeous sweater. Can you post the name /number of the Noro booklet?
