Still in boxes.

Hey, 

I won't wear you down about this today, but we're still in boxes, 2 months in.  :)  
Yes, I think I've just grown weary of emptying them out all the time, when much of what remains boxed hardly gets used.  Yet, a lot of it I am not ready to part with.  :)
I made the house fully functional within a week, which is outstanding for me, because my sister came for a visit at the end of our first full week in the house.  
Still, there isn't much to look at here: furniture doesn't quite fit, no curtains are up, and a lot of stuff still doesn't have a place.  I didn't even finish the last place after 2-1/2 years, so in comparison, I'm doing better.  
I guess I could be working on my 100th box today, instead of writing a blog, but it will just be repacked when I turn around, and life is just too short to unpack boxes for several days, right?  
This is our official 5th PCS, I think, but we've moved more frequently than that.  I believe this is our 10th abode since we married less than 9 years ago.  Part of the problem is the time we spend waiting for our housing, both on and off-base, each time we move.  
Anyway, it's tough.  I can talk about it for a long time, but am going to get some errands done instead, today.  
Thanks for listening.  :)
