Hello, all!

I've been a bit absent, but things have finally calmed down.  I am fully moved into the new house, though still have a lot of stuff in boxes I'm trying to go through.  I don't know where everything is, lol.

I've been very lucky to have amazing friends who helped with the move, because there was no way I could have done it without them.  I got the majority of my stuff over to the house on New Year's Day, and then moved the other bits and bobs Thursday and Friday.  Saturday was a final wash of the flat, and then I turned in the keys.

Sunday was spent laid out by a migraine that lasted until pretty much today.  I didn't get very much unboxed this week because of it, but I'm hoping to really tackle some stuff today.  I know I don't have to do it all at once, but I get a lot of satisfaction out of throwing the boxes out and rediscovering what I have.  I'm also making Goodwill boxes.  I know I should have done this while I was packing, and I did, trust me. But now I'm in the new house, there's a lot of stuff I thought I wanted to keep that I can get rid of.  So as I'm unboxing, I'm making a pile.  It's nice!

Here is a picture of the new home. Just the outside, as the inside is still a shambles.

No garage, but that's all right.  It still doesn't seem real that this is MY house!

Your new home, yay!!! I'm so happy you had help with the move.

Poor baby. *gentle head rubs*

Thank you! I'm so thankful I had so much help, there was no way I could have afforded it otherwise.

Doing much better, head wise. Hopefully things have calmed down enough my stress level isn't through the roof, lol.

Thank you! Thankfully the head has settled down, and will stay that way for a good long while!

Yay! Congrats on the house...I know that thing about finding stuff you thought you wanted but are now giving away...we're doing some that, but without the moving at our house.

Thank you!

It's both easier and harder than I thought it would be. I have a LOT of stuff, and some of it there just isn't really a place to put it now. I lost a desk and a bookshelf in the move, so my space actually decreased. I'll probably end up buying another bookshelf when I get my tax return, just to put some things on it.
