Aaaaarrrrrggggghhhhhh!

you would think that after moving to two different foreign countries that moving back to the good ole US of A would be a snap. But no.

things keep popping up. We're minus some paperwork we need to sell our car back to the dealership, so that was an issue that had to be worked through. The bunnies may now have to come through Dallas instead of Memphis, so now to add to the tab, we may be paying folks to drive them to Little Rock. I've just had to let go of that one. I've been so worried about the bunnies and whether or not they will survive this trip and about the state of my marriage if they don't. (I wanted to find them a nice British home). I've just had to let it go. Too much stress over creatures that don't even seem to recognize the person who feeds them and lets them roam free on a daily basis. What will be will be. If anything happens to them, I will grieve longer than Maddie.

Wednesday is trash day and normally we have two trash barrels and one or two bags of recycling. Tomorrow, I will be putting out all three trash barrels and SIX recycling bags. have been having a great time cleaning out the closets and cupboards. Am trying to a charity that will pick up some of the furniture I don't want to bring home, but all the shops I've contacted so far are too far out of our area to make a pick up. I am being thwarted.

Have finally had some inquiries about the televisions. These tvs will only work in the states if we plug them into a converter and only use them with dvds. They won't work with American cable and satellite systems, so if we could sell them, it would be a very good thing.

Am working on our inventory for the movers. I almost just want to tell a charity shop to come in and take it all and we'll start fresh in the US, but I don't think that would be a big hit with the rest of the family. Plus, apparently, we're not in an area that qualifies for pick-ups!

Planning on doing a gratitude exercise before going to bed tonight. The details of this move tend to put me in a foul mood, and I start to forget how fortunate I am. Amazing how easy it is to start complaining and to stop being thankful.
