Progress, loading----

Ok, so we're officially into week 3 of moving in. I know I got my house at the end of march and there was at least the painting to be done, but well, it's been taking awhile. Thankfully, I've now gotten everything fixed and am completely focused on moving what boxes I do have packed into the new place.

It's already got curtains and the paint looks awesome! So now with the bit by bit that we're moving with it's starting to shape up. Right now we don't have any real big furnature, but we do have bar stools, and James had set up his futon in one of the rooms. So it's coming together. Plus I spent yesterday just getting some of my unneeded clothing shipped over and unpacked. I really need a dresser or something for them (at least the ones that didn't make it to the closet.

And today I started boxing up some of my many in mountain books that I have in my room. Thankfully I'll have enough space to leave some downstairs in my living room and then a select group (which comes to about 50 or more give or take) that will make it to the library/office. Might really need to consider taking up more of my books on an e-reader. But that's just not the same- there's no magic in flipping an e-page.

Anyway, along the way I managed to clear out stuff from under my bed and now I have added to the pile in front of my dresser titled- to get rid of. I seriously had no idea that I had that much crap to lose. Not to mention the 3+ bags of garbage that ended up leaving my room during the span of my moving process. Seriously, why was I holding on to recipts that dated back to my first job? I must be losing my mind. But I promise that I'm not going to do this in my new place- I just don't need it.

So now, this weekend we will be doing some heavy lifting to get the rest of the big stuff up and out. We have a new fridge (well, my parents' gave us the old one) and a new washer and dryer that need to make the trip on top of the beds and other things that we are moving. The small stuff though- we can handle, I mean it will make it that much easier for everyone.

Trash bags removed- 3
Headaches- not yet
stress level- a 4, I haven't gone to work yet.
