I made it!

Made it to the new place!!! Love it!! Cable guys came today so its all fixed up. Everything rules with this place - I love the layout, the bathroom is nice, the sunlight from the big NEW windows (read: no drafts) is great, its just awesome. I need to finish unpacking my clothes, get a new entertainment/tv stand and a rug for the living room but then I'm all set. Oh wait, I also need a recliner-esque chair for this extra space that will be perfect for reading.

Hiring movers was so great - they took two hours, were fast, professional, worthy of a five star Yelp review. I am not sore or tired or beat up from moving. I will never ever move myself again.

I'll take photos once I get the rug and everything set up.

box tower

I'm in the midst of a tower of small, medium, and large u-haul brand boxes. I had no idea how bad dust can get behind bookshelves that you haven't moved in two years! It almost makes me want to return to my < 12 months per apartment time frame just to get rid of that dust. I'm also throwing away things that are so ancient, like some old old dog food that I got when I got audrey over 2.5 years ago! Granted it was canned or fancy stuff the adoption place gave me, but still gross. I threw out her pedialyte too because she doesn't get the doggy runs anymore.

I'm super nervous but also excited, which leaves my stomach a mess. This time tomorrow I'll be in my new place and nearly settled, just have to remember that its only a few hours away. This may be my easiest move yet because its a short distance and I have movers this time.

I stopped by the new place this afternoon with Nate. He liked it, and I liked it even more than last time I saw it. The fridge is totally disgusting inside, but I can clean it. The bathroom floor and shower are a bit grody too.
