Monday Motivator
What we're moving in to looks nothing like this
Moving into a clean, fresh, empty house is a lot like having a blank sheet of paper in front of you. If i was a painter, I’d probably make an analogy to a blank canvas, but I’m not a painter.
There’s something great (and tiring) about being able to do things however it best suits you. This classically results in a woman making a man move furniture twelve times before she’s happy. In the Mackay household, I’m as likely to be the one requesting the moves. Either way, it’s refreshing to do things a new way. Hopefully it keeps us motivated to unpack all week.
This brings back memories of your regular “Let’s rearrange our bedroom furniture” and Matt’s corresponding, “Why? I like it this way!”
Have fun!
Hey now, in my defense, i DID like the room that way. i was also quite lazy. and Drew wanted to do that every 3 months or so!
Nothing against you was meant, Matt. And it was pretty frequent!
Moving always makes me think of the words of Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce (you spell it) when he finally surrendered to US Cavalry. It was something like, “From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever.” I said those words myself over a room full of boxes with slight alteration, “I will move no more forever.” I have moved three times since then- I still hate it. Congratulations Mackays.
