Moving Day


I do not want to move.
I hate to move.
Packing up all your crap in boxes, ADD-Me coming out of hiding and reading the newspaper we use to wrap our fragile items.  thowing away treasures that you haven't touched in years, but that you know you'll need the moment the garbage man is gone.  checking the house for the 17th time before you close and lock the door one last time.
Moving a blog is like that too.  The big things, the words, they move easily.  They stack well in boxes, and unpack in order in the new place.  The photos, the memories, not so much.
But as with moving house, sometimes moving the blog is a necessary investment in the future, providing extra bedrooms and a finished basement--room to fix it up and to grow.
Once you've found the right house and closed the deal, you choose a strategic time to move--a time when your closest friends are around to help you carry the heaviest stuff, and then everyone helps you settle in with a big old housewarming party.
My blog is moving.  Come to my blogwarming party!!  Open house all day.  Come by, check it out, leave a comment, help our new house feel like home.
