Default Show me your moving layouts!

It looks like it's settled (knock on wood) - we are buying my in-law's old house (more like renting to own from them), and we will be moving in September, in the new house by October 1st. I am super excited and super scared. Super excited because IT'S OUR FIRST HOUSE (after being married for 14 years and being renters all that time) and that feeling is always good. Super scared for several reasons - a) as I've mentioned before I have fibromyalgia and a very bad back, I've moved twice since my diagnoses and the work/process is NEVER fun and always leaves me pretty down for the count for probably a couple months afterward. B) We're moving cities again, the city we're moving to is more metro and I've lived in rural cities my entire life so it's a little scary to think what we might be moving to. C) I'm a little unsettled for my almost 14 year old son, having to move schools again, having to move away from really good friends (though he'll still be in contact with them on Discord and it's close enough we don't mind setting up days he can hang out with them) all in the middle of a crazy pandemic. BUT...I'll be living in the same city as my dad again (we only live about an hour away now but I don't get to see him much even pre-pandemic and I miss him). And it's our first house. I'll be around my favorite craft stores again instead of living 3 small cities away. And it's our first house. I'll have a basement for a family/gaming room and a spacious craft area (plus tornado season...that's invaluable). And did I mention it's our first house yet?

I need all the good vibes - the pessimistic side of me wants to take over since during the past couple weeks we had a couple "oh no we're not getting the house" moments that almost broke my heart. Good vibes that the process isn't too hard on my body. Good vibes in general for a good move. The great news is digital scrapbooking is a super easy hobby to move, I can literally carry my laptop and EHD in my hands lol. The bad news is I still have 2 tons of paper scrapbooking supplies to move that I can't bring myself to get rid of (they were my late mother's)...plus an entire craft room of supplies for every crafty hobby known on God's green earth. Oy vey.

So scrappy peeps, show me any and all of your moving related layouts. I want to document the process like I never have before - because I literally don't think I've ever scrapped any of our moves. And my 2020 scrapbook needs some pages that aren't coronavirus and lockdown related, so if I'm inspired to make 100 different moving pages I'll make 100 moving pages!
