Whew!

What is it about being in a hotel that makes me so tired?  I don't know but I seem to be too sleepy to stitch.  The good part is we're done with the first half of our move.  Well the actual moving part anyway.  We're staying in hotels for the next few weeks while we figure out our move cross country to California.  We had most of our stuff packed up and is waiting in storage and the rest we were planning on taking in the car.  The bad news is we overpacked and now we have to decide what to do with the rest of our stuff.  Yikes!  All my cross stitching is in the car with us and fits in two small boxes not counting 9 fabric tubes.  I think I need more stash ;).  We donated a lot of clothes and I'm thinking about getting some space bags for our pillows and bulky items so everything hopefully fits in the car.  We're probably going to have to ship though.  

The packing was a mess.  My hubby and I are both procrastinators but he's worse than me.  The night before the movers came we only got 3 hours of sleep and about the same amount the next night.  We were packing stuff right up until we turned out keys in.  Luckily I have good friends who helped.  This is the first year we hired movers and I'm never going back.  Next time I'm paying for them to pack it too lol.

I haven't had much stitching time unfortunately.  I was expecting to have a lot of it in the hotel but we're still dealing with packing and hubby wants to go to all the parks before we leave which he just told me about.  *sigh* boys ;).  However, looking at my last picture I do have noticeable progress.  I've finished a page officially now and am about a third of the way into the next :)

And now:

I'm actually a bit further than this but it's too dark for a picture tonight.  I'd say I'm down another 5 rows or so and have some stray stitches like 5 rows from the bottom.  Hopefully next time you'll see another page finish!
