We have moved 10 times in 10 years. I am so familiar with this level of drudgery. Add that to having a baby every 2ish years for the last decade and I can very quickly slip into what's the point isms about everything! But as you say, there's really not much for it except to keep going. One of our family's favorite books is Carry On Mr Bowditch, by Jean Lee Latham and we often reference this concept of "sailing by ash breeze". When the boat is becalmed and there's no going anywhere, you've got to pick up the oars and start pulling.

This is so very good, Jessica. And I'm right there with you as a convert in many ways! I still haven't memorized the Apostle's Creed either (I frequently think, dangit, if they'd only use the Nicene Creed in the Rosary, even though it is longer)... Thank you for this encouragement.
