One More Day of Work

Tomorrow is my last day of work before the move.  Micah doesn't have a spot at a camp or in the new school district's ESY (extended school year) program, so he'll be coming to work and going off with Tesh and her daughter Mary to the water park at Great Adventure.  He'll have a blast, but he'll be toast by the time he comes back.  Saturday, just with the few hours running around in the fountain, Micah was so fried he fell asleep and all the prodding, tickling and talking in the world could not rouse him to eat dinner.

And this is fine, because tonight I packed a good number of his toys and toy bins up, so if Micah is awake, alert and mobile at home, chances are those boxes may not stay packed for long.  He's packed and unpacked and repacked the three boxes I've given him for the past two weeks.

On the other hand, as long as Thea has her tigers and her Nintendo DS, she's cool.  The boxes that are piling up in her room are not seeming to bother her.  (Audible sigh of relief from me, she's the one who hates change.)

Today the kids and I stopped by the house to hang up a shower curtain in the upstairs bathroom, put some bins for dirty clothes in the laundry room and just go through the bedrooms again to solidify where all of our stuff is going to go.  No major changes other than Thea's bookcase can't go where I originally wanted it because it will block the one heating vent.  Micah's room needs a paint job, the blue is too dark and too scuffed.  There are wallpaper borders along the ceiling of the master bedroom, Micah's bedroom and the main bathroom.  Going, going, going.   Thea's room needs some color, too. 

In time, all in time.
