can't we just put the apartment on wheels?

moving back to my birthplace is exciting.  i can't wait to take jack up to the mountains and watch him play in a stream trying to catch minnows before his feet get too cold.  i want to take siouxs! to all the neighborhoods i used to hang out in and plenty that i never did.  i'm looking forward to becoming a part of my family's lives again.
 
i'm also looking forward to having already moved.  we spent a good portion of the weekend determining what we should take and what we should sell at our yard sale next weekend.  our apartment is filled with boxes, and yet there's still an enormous amount of stuff to box up.  i went through the emotional task of throwing away a lot of old cards and letters from family and ex-girlfriends (of which there was a surprisingly large amount). 
 
simplify, simplify.  i can't possibly use all of the kitchen stuff i have, yet i want more.  if nothing else, i guess that's how i know i'm an american.
