moving sucks.

last saturday we moved to pasadena. it took a TON of work to get everything ready -- who knew we had accumulated so much stuff?



some of our AWESOME friends came to help us finish packing up and load the truck. thanks guys, you were amazing!


my parents, jeremiah, courtney & curtis and tomas & allison used their big muscles to move all our heavy crap.

once we got to pasadena, it was just brandon, me and my parents -- and a HUGE moving truck full of heavy stuff. then we got the brilliant idea to hire people. we picked up two day laborers from the pasadena u-haul stop and it was the best thing i've ever done. period. LOL. certain family members of mine have shared their dismay that we'd do that, but they were awesome workers. i literally don't know how we would have done it without them.

we got the truck unloaded in an hour...and now, eight days later, i STILL have boxes in my living room and bedroom that need to be unpacked. it's really hard to get settled in when you can only devote one hour a night after work to unpacking. not to mention i have very important other priorities in life like american idol and date nights with the fujikawas. i have high hopes for this week though -- maybe i can finish as a single woman for three days when brandon goes to san francisco.

more blogs to come...as long as our internet gets hooked up so i can stop stealing from our new neighbors ;)

Amen to how much moving sucks. And I only have to move one person, I can't imagine dealing with a husband plus everything you need to have a house!
