traxis on the run

Is it possible to work so much that you get sick? Yes. We got the keys to the new house yesterday and started moving. It was a lot of work, moving box after box after box by hand, from our house, across the street, to the other house, up the stairs or into the garage, or down to the dug out basement.

One thing that is super good about the new house is that Chris and I will finally be sharing one room officially. I have never been 100% comfortable, especially when having to explain our living arangements to others. Anyhow, now we are doing what normal people do.

With the extra room, this means we each have our own office. This is good because we'll each be able to keep that room as clean/messy, cute/full of tech stuff as we want (note: the first of each pair obviously applies to MY room :) ). Sadly, we do not have a downstairs closet for coats and stuff, happily my deep freeze fits into the mudroom space. My armoire will fit upstairs, and we'll have the shared room set up the same as the way my room is set up right now.

Kitchen looks much better than when old tenents were there. Need to brighten up the house with light curtains, cute touches, mirrors, etc.

Parents sent some housewarming money! Yay! Will go get some goodies for my office with that - since there are hardwood floors in all the rooms (except kitchen, bathroom, and mudroom) will purchase a cute circular rug, a new office chair, and perhaps a floating shelf, and a small bookcase. Can't wait to finish putting the space together.

Speaking of which, I should get back to work. Was totally unproductive since 7 pm yesterday - must start up again!
