We close on our house in less than a week. It doesn't seem like it should be so close already! I was sure this month was going to creep by, but it hasn't. It has sped by. I was also sure I'd have started packing by this time, but I haven't. Packing with Gavin is difficult. Packing and Gavin don't mix. I'm hoping that I can actually get packing done with the family and friends who have volunteered to come over and Gavin-sit. Time will tell. At least we have the entire month of July (after we take possession on the 7th, that is) to paint, clean, and move.
Because someone asked for more information, here are some directions for the new sling I mentioned making a couple weeks ago. Find a fabric with a little give that is still strong. I used a linen blend (I got it from JoAnn's -- currently 1.99/yd, which can't be beat). See
http://www.didymos.de/english/index_e.htm for the yardage info. Cut the fabric in half so you have a piece that is about 23 inches wide by however many feet long your fabric is. Hem or edgestitch the edges, et voila! For tying instructions, see http://www.peppermint.com/girasolcarry.htm
