The Deadline

So now, we are packing the house. We have to leave Aug. 18. Our convoy has grown to include Jonesy and Sonic, who have agreed to help us out: Jonesy will drive the Badger's car, and Sonic will ride with the Badger in the U-Haul to make sure he stays awake.

I will be off next week, while the Badger heads out of town for work. (He didn't have to go through the whole job hunt. He gets to keep his job and work remotely. #NOPANTS)

We have rented a house in Las Vegas, so we won't have to live in the tunnels. That will be nice.

It's so weird to be leaving our Missouri house, though. It's the place where both the Badger and I have lived the longest, so letting it go is bittersweet. We are both ready, though. It's scary and amazing. And though I'm slowly losing my sanity, because a cross-country move ain't easy, I believe this move may be the best thing we've ever set out to do.
