I'm here

[clevermanka]

All moved in at the new place. Thanks to everyone for the well-wishes. And thank you to everyone who bought stuff on my registry. Two of the items have already arrived! Would whomever ordered the cutting boards please drop me a line? It got opened by someone other than me 😠😠😠 and now I can't find the packing slip.

I got five (consecutive!) hours of sleep last night, which honestly was more than I was expecting. I'm beyond worn out but I can't psychologically relax until there aren't boxes cluttering up the place. At least not where I can see them. I finished the kitchen this morning and will probably attempt the bedroom today. If nothing else, I need to locate clean underwear. The art studio (which easily made up half the boxes) might have to wait until next week. I should probably get a before picture because it's sure in a state right now.

Trying not to think about anything else right now, tbh.

So excited to know you're settling into your new home! Good luck with everything, including taking it easy and giving yourself a break. *hugs*

It's such an annoying mix of "I really need to rest" and "there is no resting when I am surrounded by chaos."

I do have plans to watch the as-yet-unsubbed Zhu Yilong hour-long Thermos thing for some ASMR vibes...

[goss]

Glad to know you're all moved in. <3

Oh yes, definitely take some Before pics. They don't ever really feel necessary at the time, but I find that looking back and having tangible proof of progress and accomplishment gives me that extra boost to continue moving forward.

[clevermanka]

I'm gonna have to stand on the stepladder to get a good shot of it. 😂

I'm so glad you're there! Good luck with the unpacking and settling in and breathing. *hugs*

Excellent! Can't wait to see what you get up to in your studio.

[clevermanka]

It's like half the size of the room in the Indiana St house and not even a third of the storage. 😂

[trobadora]

Glad to hear you're all moved in! Good luck with the unpacking!

Taking some before-and-after pics sounds like fun.

*hugs*

[clevermanka]

I'll definitely do it for the studio because seriously it's comical.

Very yay indeed!

[thetimesink]

Yeah!
...and yes, studio pics, please.

[clevermanka]

You got it!

Congrats on the move accomplished, and good luck with the boxes!

[clevermanka]

Thank you! Only two rooms left to unpack and sort.

[write_out]

I'm sooo behind. YOU'RE IN!! WOO! Unpacking is noooooo fun, but I hope it goes as speedily as possible and that you'll be all settled in soon.

[clevermanka]

I'm in! Still gotta find some sort of shelving for the bathroom before progress can be made in there. The studio craft room is just a closed door for now. 😂

[tinny]

Congrats on the move! It always takes much longer to unpack and get settled in than expected. <3

[clevermanka]

Especially since this time I can't have anyone over to help!
