So every Monday I work two jobs and get home at 9, so does my mom. Full day Mondays for both of us has been going on for a while and when we get home after work me and her always eat and watch tv together, (usually castle during the tv season and whatever is on in the summer). My dad watches tv with us too and we all catch up on how our day was and just things in general. Even though I live at home that is really one of the few times during the week we are all together at the same time. It may sound dorkyish but I really love that time with my parents just relaxing and eating and watching tv after a long Monday. It just hit me last night that there is only 1 left before I move out , and then it hit me that I am really moving out. Its weird until that moment last night it almost felt more like I was going on vacation as compared to moving out. Even though I have packed mostly everything I own, it still didn't seem real and then all of a sudden it did. I am super thrilled moving out with (e:libertad) and to have my own place but it just struck me about how much I am going to miss about living here. Its been a pretty great 27 years I think, and I am definitely going to miss it!

Garage Sale Day 1Well today went swell. It realy did. Lots of people showed up and they bought quite a bit of stuff. We can definitely use less tables and chairs tomorrow. I was really pleased. People came so early...like at 730 when it starts at nine and then they were digging thorugh all the boxes which made it harder to set up and everything but all in all in went well. Lets see what happens tomorrow.

I am speechless. How does one end up with some of these wild things.. I am not sure I even know what some of those things are. For once I wish I lived in the hood or at least had a car. :/
How many sand clocks do you have? Is the one with the orange sand the only one?

@(e:libertad) yes selling that is a sin you must have that given away to someone of a different faith so they are converted....HA... That is so wild..... The Saved by the Bell Shampoo is insane..... Not sure if you are selling it but that orange Elephant in the background does look pretty cool though....

Thank god you are getting rid of this crap!! I can't believe you have a WWJD crucifix, you're probably going to hell cause you're selling it.

That is so cute. You can still visit. You are not moving that far.
First of all I want to wish you both luck... The Reason I say that is it will be good and tough I don't mean tough in a bad way... Just a lot of adjusting... Not only will it be (If I understood you correctly) the first time not living with your parents but you will be sharing a place and sharing bills and all that kind of stuff.... That being said I'm guessing it will be tough on them also.... Guessing (for me I think it would be house on Monday) you will both be in your separate Places and thinking this is nice but seems like something is missing....
I miss my parents still (and they tell me that they miss me.. who knows) even though both of us let out a big sigh of relief when I left home.
Awwee.... i don't think that's "dorkyish", i think it's sweet. Family is important and i think it's great you have a relationship with your parents that is sane and stable... and that you like and appreciate it. Will make you a great father if you ever decide to be one. :o)
