We have given away probably ... http://lizardsmells.com/moving-sucks/ I should. I should be packing a box right now. Instead I'm drinking coffee, browsing Ravelry and playing Neopets. Oh, shut up. We're leaving the heavy shit, most of it. I'm keeping my living room tables and my lamps, I love my fucking lamps. But the ... http://lizardsmells.com/i-should-be-packing/ We really did.  We made an offer on this one.  It's perfect for us.  The basement has almost the exact same square footage as the house does.  And a sink, a big one.  I'm going to have one hell of an art studio.
