Can't Wait for the Olympics to be Over

I love the Olympics, but I just have to say that I am looking forward for them to be over. I don't think I've been this tired in a long time and that is due to the fact that we have to stay up until the last of the events are done for the day. That has been about midnight lately. Since I have to be up for work early I don't get too much sleep. I know I get about 7 hours, but for some reason I am still so exhausted. I think my whole family, or the one's I live with right now, feel the same. We all passed out on the couches watching the coverage this afternoon. We all had about a 3 hour nap. It was so nice. Maybe once the olympics are over I will get the rest I need to not have to take a nap while Zack is down. Hope all of you are not as addicted to the games as we are. I guess it's not too bad to only be this way for 2 weeks every 2 years.

How much stuff can 3 people accumulate?

Wow, I cannot believe how much stuff we have accumulated in 3 years. I moved into our Evanston apartment in July 2005 and then Paul moves in once we were married in August 2005. Zack joins us in June 2007, but seriously, how much stuff do you think can fit in a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment? We rented a 10 x 25 storage unit and it's almost full and we are still not done moving everything in. I know we were cramped in that apartment, but seriously. I had no idea how cramped until we started to make our way up and down those three flights of stairs about a million and a half times. We still have stuff in the front room, Zack's crib, our bed frame, our mattress, washer & dryer, other stuff in the laundry room, and our whole kitchen. I honestly don't know how much more I can do? I think we have been packing for the last month and it seems as though nothing has gotten done. We get to go back right after Paul gets off work on Friday and pack some more and clean and still try to get everything done by Sunday so we can drive back to Orem and go back to work Monday morning. I hate moving and we're not even done yet. We're still waiting on the bank to accept our offer on the home in Springville, so until then we're staying with my parents. We have thrown away so much stuff and given to DI so many things that I don't know how we still have stuff to move. I just really hope we can get into this home soon so we can be done within the next little while and stay there forever and never move again. Maybe we should just throw everything away and not have anything to pack in case we move again? It would be so much easier, don't you think? Well, the move has been awful, but we're glad to be in Utah. Change is good and when you know it's the right thing for you to do, change is really good.

Here is outside our front and side door with all our cleaning supplies.

Here's our guest bathroom all clean and ready to go.

Full with most of our stuff.
Full, full, full
Top to bottom, FULL!
FULL!

UPDATE!!!

We went back there this weekend, 10/18, to try to get to the filing cabinet where we had our checks. We opened the door and Paul's parent's had added more of our stuff in there and we couldn't even stop foot in there. I don't know how they added more, but there's more. We don't have any more checks so I hope we hear soon on the house so we can get to the filing cabinet soon to pay our bills that need to be paid by check.
