The Moving Adventure

Today the move really began, or at least I thought. In truth it really only began for the cat. For me the packing happened and that was it. Foolishly I was under the impression that my move would be one day...could be because the manager at the moving company told me it would be one day, but who knows where I got this crazy idea! Instead today was just the packing of everything I owned, including the Shug. 
Yes, Sugar the cat is now a world traveler. She departed Dulles Airport for Amsterdam (not to worry I told her to just say no!) where she will spend a few hours resting from her flight and then board a flight to Singapore. The Shug will arrive on Wednesday afternoon and begin her 30 day quarantine period. I miss her terribly but must admit I will enjoy waking up to the alarm and not before the alarm to a hungry cat! 
As for me, I'm hanging in my Marriott hotel in downtown DC contemplating the beginning of this adventure. So far it hasn't been too bad and I was lucky to have good friends help me through the tough spots today...thanks to Pete and Rachel (the wine was just what I needed!). 
Hopefully I'll have some exciting news to share with this great adventure! I hope y'all enjoy reading all about my trip to Singapore!!

Damn you moving company! Make sure the Shug is drug tested when you see her again. You don't want her compromising your job because of one wild night in the Red Light District!

Take care and good luck with the rest of the move.

T Meggie B,
Good luck!! The Shug will be fine, probably a little heavier from the munchies, but she will be fine!! Enjoy the trip, get settled soon and I'll be over to VISIT!!!
