Yeah, moving is no fun. Kelly and I (my kelly ) thought about buying a newer, larger house in Raleigh but the reality of moving shut those plans down. We ended up with a condo at the coast as a consolation prize.

Good luck with the move!!!

I feel your pain. I am filled with anticipation on our new house; but, the anticipation does not include the actual act of moving. Dragging all the stuff down from the attic and the piano loom large in my thoughts.

When I was in Germany, the older Germans who had lived through WWII used to say:

Dreimal umgezogen ist so schlimm wie einmal ausgebombt.

(Moving three times is as bad as being bombed out once.)

Nowadays they say:

Drei Mal umgezogen ist wie einmal abgebrannt

(Moving three times is like being burnt out once.)

Anyway you say it it’s not going to be a case of
getting there is half the fun.

But good luck. I’d offer to help but 11 hours each way is a bit too much for me. You might talk my daughter into helping. She usually knows a lot of strong backs she might be able to recruit.
