Moving Tip #1: When using PODS to move your stuff, think carefully about the size of the POD and the size of the moving truck that was completely full when you moved into the house. And then think about all the stuff you've bought since then. Hmm. Maybe you need two or three PODS instead of one.
Moving Tip #2: Are we having fun, yet? (That's Brian's version of a morale booster.)
Moving Tip #3: Friends and family are wonderful, wonderful people and we love them for pitching in because we'd probably still be trying to move out if they didn't.
Moving Tip #4: Why are we doing this?
Moving Tip #5: Trying to set aside what you need for the next couple of months while packing up the rest of the house doesn't work very well. Move out. Now throw everything else in boxes.
I don't even want to list any more moving tips, it's depressing just to think about last week. Let's just say it was long and miserable and we're so glad we survived.
While I miss my home and my friends in Tooele, I have to admit I woke up Friday morning feeling so liberated. Even though I never had to make that drive around the mountain every day, just the thought that Brian didn't have to anymore was so, well, liberating. Freedom from long, horrid drives! Hooray!

Haha, I'm glad you guys survived! I'm not looking forward to two years from now when that time comes around for us, too!
