Busy Week

This past week has been crazy busy for me.  The insurance for our move requires that I inventory everything that we own.  Yes that means me counting how many books are in the house and how many pairs of socks the kids have in their drawer.  It is a huge pain and very time consuming.  In between doing the inventory Jason and I had to try to sell our car again.  The person who was going to buy it backed out leaving us with 3 weeks to sell our car.  Needless to say we were not very happy.  I quickly posted our car for sale on czechinfo.net which is a huge email distribution list.  We had two responses the next morning and since Jason is at work it meant that I had to show the car.  This definitely cut into my inventory time since it meant cleaning the car and then showing it.  The first people looked at it and wanted to bring it to their mechanic which of course required more time.  Unfortunately those people completely low-balled us which was very irritating since we didn't really have the time to be wasting.  The second people that came to see it where perfect.  They came, saw the car, drove it and bought it!  It is a huge relief to have the car sold and it is now fine that the other person backed out since we got more money for the car then we would have gotten if we had sold it to a friend. 
In between all of that I did have time to have coffee with some friends.  While I may have had my last big family dinner with my friends Emily and Kirsty that doesn't mean I won't see them again before we leave.  We made time for a quick coffee  this last week.  It was nice to have a short break from all my "to do" items.  Emily's mom was visiting as well so we took the opportunity to take some photos together.  It is nice to know that I will have some nice pictures of my friends for when we are back in the States.
