Moving!

Ideally I would like to live in a big building with four wings surrounding an enclosure, with a garden and a nice fountain. Shaped like this:

My family and I would live in one wing, and in the other wings would live all our best friends.

We are not moving into that building. But we are moving into a condo in a group of buildings that looks like this:



As you can see, this group of condos is very similar to the building I would like to live in. As you can also see, there is a swimming pool, which is kind of like a very big fountain that happens not to be running. What you cannot see from this picture is that we will live here:



and that a group of some of our best friends lives here:



So that's a whole corner of my dream right there. Maybe if I dream harder it will spread until I have the whole thing.

Disappointment

This post was supposed to be titled "Look who's all organized now" and feature photos of the checklists I made to manage the packing process and keep from worrying about all the things we won't be able to do till move day.

But I seem to have packed the cable to hook the camera up to the computer.

That was supposed to be a punchline. From here it doesn't look as funny as I thought it was going to be.
