The biggest packing day so far

I got my library boxed up this afternoon, which took 7.3 hours including moving stuff out of the garage, making a quick trip to storage, and making a second quick trip to Staples for more boxes when it became obvious I'd run out after they closed.

Cassie spent most of the day on the porch as the temperature hovered around 18°C for the last 3 hours. It's quite pleasant. Somehow she also got over an hour of walkies today, and over 4 hours since Friday. She's still mildly anxious, because there's a lot of disruption and boxes, but so far her main couch is still there and so am I.

So, you know, quiet week coming up: finishing all packing by 5pm tomorrow so I can get to our last rehearsal of the season, then a dress rehearsal Wednesday, and performances Friday and Saturday. Oh, and I'm moving Tuesday. No stress whatsoever.

Also, Xfinity is going to move my internet connection to the new apartment sometime tomorrow. I don't know when, but I'm sure I'll notice it. So there might not be a post until Tuesday after the move. Updates as conditions warrant.

I am now waiting for my pizza to arrive, with plans to watch the latest episodes of The Boys and Margo's Got Money Troubles. And then I will read quietly and contemplate the next 37 hours of living here...
