the other side.

we did it. we moved! all of our belongings are currently under one roof... our own roof. and damn, do we have a lot of belongings! the day of the move there were boxes and furniture stacked to the ceiling on the first floor with one little aisle down the middle to walk down carefully. but slowly by slowly we are going thru boxes. unpacking and making sense of it all. the master bedroom and kitchen are pretty much up and running. along with one of the bathrooms (the one with the claw-foot tub).

the best part of it all is seeing choppy run around in his own backyard. he really loves it.

our dsl is still down. but hopefully by friday, i can post some pictures.

cleaning and moving and moving and cleaning.

the next week will be spent cleaning our new place, moving boxes, finishing the wall we knocked down, polishing the floors, more packing, more moving, painting and cleaning our old place, more moving... it's hard to see an end. jason and i are very tired. we both work full-time jobs and then come home and work all night at home. we keep telling ourselves in a little over one week from now, we will be moved for good! i can't wait for our first night in our new place. when i can relax with a nice bottle of chianti, turn on the record player and listen to sly stone's "everybody is star" as it dances thru the walls and doors and floors and settles somewhere perhaps by the fireplace making itself at home.

as of today, we don't have phone or dsl at our old place so you might not hear from me in a while. i'll be sure to take plenty of pictures.

see you on the otherside,
