Hectic and Happy

Things are hectic.

No surprises there, right? What with trying to pack up our lives into as few boxes as possible, tiny impatient children who still think they need to eat, multiple trips to Highland (where we're moving) and Eagle Mountain (where we're storing our furniture in my kind sister's basement), still working every day, and - oh - let's throw some morning sickness in there for kicks.

And now Bill has a cold.

I'm overwhelmed. I look at the tasks before me - and the timeline we're trying to accomodate - and I think...I'm overwhelmed. Impossible. Can't be done. Also - I want a nap.

And yet?

We're all happy. Our moods? Light as peach frozen yogurt. Our faces? Can't quit grinning. We're talking spontaneous song first day of vacation opening birthday presents type of THRILLED.

My guess?

It's because we've moved our mine cart onto the right track, and we're finally moving.

That feels good.

But I still want a nap.

If you need a day without your lovely darlings to try and get stuff done I would be more than happy to have them over to play!

This is the first time I've stopped by (hopping here from Say Anything). For as busy as you seem to be (with morning sickness to boot!), you sound like you've got a sense of humor about things. :>

hey, I saw on the news that there was massive flooding in Eagle Mountain. I hope that the stuff you guys stored in a basement there didn't get some kind of arrival initiation.
