Signs you Move Around a Lot

I know I am WAYY behind on updates and pictures, but I am beginning to see the light at the end of the paper/virtual-paper tunnel, so maybe by Christmas I'll be up-to-date? 

In the meantime, we are considering/deciding where we will be next year, and thinking hard about where we should be after that, maybe, uh, permanently?!! 

I just can't help sharing this blog post from one of my favorite blogs about simple, home-made living called Small Notebook


Here are my additions:

19) You periodically look at your accumulated *stuff* and think, "We've gotta go through that so we don't have to move it again"

20) You invest in a high-powered scanner to eliminate the file-boxes of paper.*

21) Your "filing cabinets" are plastic boxes with handles from Target, and you have a hard-and-fast rule re: the total number of boxes tolerable.

22) Rather than paying for carpet cleaning or replacing carpet in your rental, you save up for a big, pretty, wool rug that will disguise the inevitable stains from 3 kids and a dog, protect your security deposit, and you can take it with you when you move!*

* Indicates my current household savings goals. :) 

Love to everyone! I do post a lot of pictures on facebook, so feel free to friend me if you know me in real life and you can see some chubby cheeks before I get this updated!
