T minus 24 hours


first....I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has been reading my blog and leaving comments and to all the people who have taken the time to e mail me regarding the move...

Thank you.

I got a lot of wonderful emails about the "room divider" situation of yesterday....and you will all be happy to know that I actually found one at Target.Com, that was well within my price range even with tax and shipping I will save $80 off the one I was going to buy.

The best part...the screen will be delivered Thursday or Friday, so I won't even have to wait a million years to get it, which satisfies my obsessive nature.

So last night we moved a ton more stuff to the house including our entertainment center which always seemed so big in our apartment, it now seems rather small.

So this is it....the final day and hours in the apartment. You may be wondering about my mindset at the moment....

well, I'm anxious, like Christmas Eve anxious mixed with a little bit of "back to school", so that's good.

I keep having the beginnings of panic attacks but they have so far staved off, I don't do well with chaos and it has been chaotic...also, I have not gone this long without creating anything in a long time, in fact the last time I help a paint brush was Thursday, I think that is what id leading to the anxiety...I have no release for it.

But....I keep focusing on the new place and the new studio which I will be able to set up tomorrow.

So I did get to list a new collage in the shop yesterday, which I think has a different feel than most of my pieces, it's called "Between Symbol and Myth"

ok darling ones....I'm off, due to the move there will be no celebrity letters tomorrow but fear not, next Wednesday Celeb letters will be the best as we are going to theme it up (you know how I love themes).

So, hopefully I will be back to blogging on Thursday...cross your fingers that the internet and phone get hooked up without a hitch.

***EDIT - just got off the phone with ATT and looks like my dsl order was "not placed" so I will be sans internet connection until late Thursday at the earliest.....pray for me in these dark days

I'm going to be all lost and confused without a new Stiletto Heights post, you know. I mean, I guess your move is more important, but yeesh...

;)

Good luck again w/the move! Maybe I will do a Celeb Letters on Funky Carter tomorrow in your honor.

Oh, the best of luck. Moving is the worst part, but it will all be worth it in the end.

Gosh darn phone company! Don't they know people NEED(not yelling, just emphasis) their internet?!

What move is complete without some kind of technology breakdown? good luck with all the rest of it! I hope that room divider works out well for you, I've been thinking of doing something similar at my place.

Good luck, Jenn!

Remember, lift with Bubs' legs, and not with your back.

Jenn, good luck with the move and being sans internet for a week! I'd say a week of no blogging is worth moving into a fantastic new house.

Oh jeeeez! My thoughts are with you. I know how stressful moving can be--and don't get me started with the panic attacks! I feel your pain.
But it's all very exciting. I hope you'll post some pics fo your new home when you have them.
Can't wait for the next celebrity letter. You are a creative genius! Hope you get back to your creating soon. You are always very inspiring.

That is one thing that we have in common Jenn. Moving...ugggggg! I know that it is a hassle and very much of a strain on the emotions.
Onto other subjects...
I always know that when I stop by and visit your blog that your work will be outstanding.Thanks for sharing it!

Thinking of you! Glad you found a room divider that you like. I hope you are soon back on the internet-we all need our stiletto fix.

Congrats on your poster winning on Etsy! Beautiful!

You are so brave to go without the net for a day. When I moved to my uni, the first thing I did was commandeer a 'techie' to set up and connect my internet.
Moving makes me so freakin cranky.
