Things In Motion
We're moving. Well, we're planning on moving. Right now, we're going through the motions of prepping our house for sale: inviting Realtors to conduct market analyses, clearing out the clutter (selling off what's worth selling, then junking the rest), fixing up the insides (patching, painting, replacing blinds, etc.), and beautifying the outside (re-landscaping, planting). We've given ourselves 4 weeks to make the house ready. We're going to try eBay, and if we can't move our things quickly enough, we'll call in a trading assistant. We're ripping out all of the ugly, boring plantings (and there are plenty!) and replacing them with lovelier things. Pics soon maybe.
Ah, but where are we moving, you ask? For the longest time, Washington state has been our goal, and it still is. But we're taking a detour. Our destination is now Georgia... and grad school. More on that too if I manage to get my ducks in a row in time for the application deadline.

Great googly-moogly! Details, man, I need details! I tell you, everyone's moving these days. Well good luck on getting the hoose ready for your newfangled eBay sale.

I'm not selling my house on eBay, you nit! Although, that might not be a bad idea. I could sell it with all the stuff I need to be rid of still inside it! It could read something like this:
Single family home, 4BR, 2.5Bath, LR, DR, FR, Kitchen with eating area, new vinyl siding, new sliding glass door, replacement windows, 1 car garage, gas heat/AC, electric appliances, 0.25 acre lot, fenced backyard, raised planting beds, minutes from beach, shopping, and nature preserve, baby grand piano, Star Wars collectibles and small library convey.
Not a bad idea at all.
