We moved. We left our first house and crammed the contents into one storage unit and one apartment; surprisingly, the smaller space in the apartment doesn't feel as small as I thought it would. The kids are sharing a bedroom, which they find utterly hilarious because HEY! We can SEE EACH OTHER from our BEDS, holy crap this is AWESOME until 10:30 at night when mommy is considering resorting to baby Benedryl because she has put us back into bed for the seventybillionth time and is about to cry. It took Bryan a month to figure out that he could get out of his toddler bed when we transitioned him; it took Sarah about seven minutes to figure that same thing out.
The move itself went well, aside from the giant bruise that came from only God knows where:
I discovered that little baby when I went to take a shower after Day 1 of THE BIG MOVE. I honestly have no clue what caused that kind of damage to my leg; you think I'd remember getting hit hard enough to leave that kind of a bruise.
Since I also managed to finish my class load (A in English, B in Accounting II) AND we moved, I treated myself to some fabric for the stash.
These were both eBay purchases. I am your typical stasher; I buy this stuff in a frenzy, when I'm all caught up in how pretty it is, but I don't ever have a specific project in mind for it. I do the same thing with yarn. I rarely go into buying craft supplies with any specific use in mind, which is why I'm about to be buried under a mound of wool. I'm determined to use these fabrics up before the summer is up, though. I think this is going to quickly become the Summer of the Quilt.
