Finally, we have sold our house and we are heading west!  We are in the thick of packing and moving our stuff into a POD (this is the second one and it's almost full, yikes).  We have to be out of our house on Saturday.

Where, exactly, are we moving, you might ask.  We don't know exactly.  Everything is going into storage in Los Angeles.  We have a temporary apartment in Long Beach, but it's tiny.  I purposely didn't rent one that was too nice so we would be motivated to find a house--fast.  (We have been house-hunting for several months, and we have tried to buy three different houses, but we didn't get any of them.  L.A. house hunters are vicious, I tell you.  Vicious.

So we are on our week of "lasts."  Last time to eat at Norma's.  Last time to visit the ducks at the park.  Last visit to the library (they are mad at me anyway because I lost a book, and even though I could skip town and never replace it, I confessed and they wanted to charge me $45 to replace it).

Last load of dishes in the dishwasher.   It's kind of weird.  I have such good memories in this house and this neighborhood but I am definitely ready for a change.

Wish me luck and bon voyage,
Kara
