We are moved in! We are still getting settled and have a mess of boxes around us, but they are gradually getting unpacked and we could NOT be happier.
Don't get me wrong, we've had our share of setbacks but try to remind ourselves that is just part of moving and we'll forget about it (or laugh about it) in a few months....it will also remind us of why we don't move very often.
The list so we can look back at it:
- we've had to disassemble/reassemble our bed at least 5 times, 4 times in one day (first because movers didn't make the little legs stand up that support the mattress, later because each worker we've had in has had to move the bed - contractor, add a jack guy)
- washing machine water sources were switched -- and for some reason still drips
- comcast has been out twice and we still don't have tv or phone.....thank goodness for netflix streaming (and a very techy hubby!) <-- i="">this one is the big frustration, wish us luck for tomorrow!
- our entire moving shifted a day, but that was for the best -- Saturday was GORGEOUS!
We're enjoying exploring our new area -- we rode our bikes to get gelato at a nearby place last night, Kevin discovered it when we wanted to grab some pizza one day last week when we were even more 'box city'.
Something I realized recently, this is the first time since moving out of my parents house (1997) that I have a mailbox out front (well actually attached), everywhere else has been a whole set of boxes in one area....won't miss that. and we bought a nice one, with a lock and fully enclosed -- the one that was here was open on top so everything got soaked when it rained....no good!
Congrats! All-in-all, it sounds like a standard move. ;) Glad you are safely in your new abode.
