Whirlwind

Wow! What a whirlwind couple of days! On Monday, I dropped the kids off with my sister & I have been sorting & packing like a maniac! I can't believe how much I have gotten done, but how much there is left to do. No wonder my head has been banging all week. I think instead of needing a UHaul truck to move our things to Michigan, we need a UHaul truck to get rid of the things we're not taking! Tomorrow I am going to take some pageant things to a friend to see if she wants to purchase anything. Let's hope she'll take the whole lot. I don't want to have to deal with any of it any more & I certainly need the money. I'm also dropping off a load of stuff to my sister & picking the kids up. They are not going to know what to think when they walk into the house! LOL It is going to be a big headache trying to keep Alex out of everything! I don't think there is one room left in the house where he won't have tons of stuff to get into trouble with. :( But I can't wait to get my little monsters back. I miss them so much! Dad is supposed to arrive tomorrow night. Let's hope he doesn't shot me because of all the stuff left to do in the house, but I did think I had another week to get everything done.

Friday morning A & I are supposed to go to my attorney's office to sign the divorce & custody papers. I'm praying that everything goes smoothly. After we sign the papers, we're going to an indoor play place so he can have some time with the kids before we leave. I know it's going to be hard for everyone. We also have to pick up the UHaul truck sometime on Friday & drop my car off with Mom.

On Saturday we start packing the truck. Dad had wanted to get on the road Saturday, but I just don't see how that is going to be possible. I don't think we'll be able to leave until Sunday morning & with the kids, I think the drive will have to be split up into two days. I am so dreading it. But I will be so relieved when it's done! Then we will be on to the next step in this crazy adventure. Right now I think I need to take some headache tablets & a nice bath before I head off to try to get some sleep. But more than likely, I will just end up doing more packing until I finally just drop into my bed...
