A blog about the things I forget to tell you

Moved




We are Post-Move! Sunday we dropped off our keys to the old place and we have everything in our new place, although we are still days away from getting everything unpacked and put away.

Honestly, this was one of the easiest moves I’ve been a part of. This is a bit of a surprise since this was to be a move that included only three people, six flights of stairs, no parking and narrow streets for a uhaul, and a shortage of boxes. HOWEVER, we are pretty much the best. By that I mean we were undoubtedly lucky. We only needed two trips with the truck and everything but the mattress and box spring fit in the tiny elevator. Amazing news. Couch, shockingly heavy and razor-edged entertainment stand, dressers, all were wedged into that elevator after much twisting and spinning.

Most of the cussing out the sky came on Sunday. Cleaning the old apartment went well enough, and shopping was fine, but took forever. We were the most tired upon our return, but I still needed to run the bikes over from the old apartment, which took several trips as I forgot the keys to the bike locks like a champ.

Anyway, the new place is getting pretty high marks so far. We are still trying to find a good solution for bike storage, but other than that things are going well. The kitchen is like an actual kitchen, water pressure is good, the amount of space feels amazing, and we get natural light. Who’d a thought that would be a plus?

There will be more words soon, but this is a start and I have been hungry pretty much nonstop since the move. Don’t really know why, but there you go. So I’m off to second breakfast. Back shortly.
