yall are all wonderful. thank you very much. i may just be asking for help after all. i think i'm having painting nights, including pizza and beer and beverages on the 16th and 17th after 5. cleaning is happening the 15th after 3. I get my keys on the 15th and the movers are moving most of my stuff on the 18th so i am trying to go as much done (cleaning and painting) before the morning of the 18th.

so.... i went away for the weekend... it both cluttered and cleared my head... go figure. i have been overwhelming myself in every possible way... which is actually the opposite of what i am supposed to be focusing on doing. i am starting to freak out because i am realizing what a big job packing and moving and trying to go it alone is.... it is making me sad that i don't have my family and old friends here to help... i went and watched my current "roommate" at her new place last night... she had her mom and friends over helping her clean and paint and stuff and i was realizing that i don't have that in philly... i don't live in austin anymore and i don't have my family or those friends that you can ask for help without them thinking anything of it... oh well. new places, new faces... i wish i just believed that i could do it all by myself.... grrrr. but the good news is that i am still excited about the move and while i'm sure it will be sad, i am hoping and thinking that it will also be empowering on some level.... yep.
here are so pictures of my new place (not my furniture but that is me measuring with my interesting landlord)

i don't have...those friends that you can ask for help without them thinking anything of it.
Hey, all you have to do is ask, and i'll be a moving machine. Really, if you need help - I'll be more than happy to help. Don't even think twice about asking. I love helping!
