We moved on December 31st and were thankful for the three day weekend and movers.
On Friday I helped Brian pack and then went to Time Warner to cancel our cable after that I went to the house to meet the wiring guy and For Brian and the movers. While the movers didn't take everything we expected we were very glad we used them. Quick, friendly and helpful. After the movers left, Brian and his friends Al and Gary helped bring more stuff over from the apartment while I emptied boxes. I got most of the kitchen put away and most of the boxes in the rooms they were supposed to be in. We spent the rest of the evening unpacking and trying to organize our chaotic mess. Poor Brian did unfortunately find out we had plumbing issues when he tried to shower that night and no, we did not stay up for the New Year.
Sunday we woke up and Brian and I went to the apartment to pick up the rest of the stuff. Brian then went home to unpack while I cleaned the apartment. I met the boys home at 12:30ish and took a bath and we all went out for errands. We took Gary and Al out to lunch to thank them which took far too long and then we went to order the bedroom set Brian and I picked out from Ashley's Furniture and pick out a king sized mattress. After that we came home and did more unpacking and organized.
Monday Brian and I went to pick up some more tension rods and curtains to temporarily solve the window covering window and pick up some food. After that, guess what! We did more unpacking.
At this point the house is getting there. The plumbing issue is resolved but now there is Internet wiring issues. Things need caulking, paint needs touch ups and the microwave is not venting outside. We have let head builder know and will add to the list as things come up I am sure. The house is as organized as it will be without projects being finished. Brian can't finish his office without the Internet, can't finish the loft without the book cases can't finish master and guest bedroom without bedroom set. And it won't be clean until we can get rid of the trash.
We are definitely enjoying the new house!
