Monday's Lessons Learned September 21, 2009

Say hello to the first day of fall, today is the Autumn Equinox, hence the Mother of Earth card in the logo area. This winter is going to prove to be unpredictable for myself and my family, with only 40 days to go till Halloween, the night we plan to leave British Columbia, we are still seeing small progress to getting out of here. The garage sale is off, I just don't have the time, or desire to hold one. Everything is either going or getting out of the house now. One of the first things to go were the box springs for the beds, and the carpet in the attic. Lots of useless furniture that is not going is also heading out the door. That has been clearing up a lot of space.

When we were on the road as caravaners, we had what was known as steamer trunks. They were great because not only was everything always packed, they doubled their functions as furniture. Although I have often dreamed of being such a good carpenter to make such useful items, I will likely not get around to making any after we move to the farm, but they would have been great to have for this trip, we'd already be packed!

Not sure still what do with all the stuff we are keeping, it might end up in a transport container, and be shipped out later, while we just hop onto a plane. Yes we want out that bad.

Lesson Learned: I think I've said this already but, we should have left years ago.
