We are full on into packing mode, deadline mode, and getting ready for deployment mode. On the one hand I’m feeling a little bit insane, and on the other it’s a bit of a blessing–there’s no time to slow down and feel bad about the upcoming deployment.

The kids are taking all this excitement very well. Olga was a bit concerned that the storage unit was like a giant trash compactor, but now she understands that we’ll get all of our stuff back eventually, so she’s helping me sort through toys and blankets to pack. Gavin still lives in Oblivious Land, so as long as he can climb in and around, and drive his cars over the boxes, he doesn’t really care what else is going on.
