Moving Shorts

CAR WASH! CAR WASH!: The move itself wasn't too bad. We had gorgeous weather, probably due to the prayers of the church that was running a fund-raising car wash two doors down from us. Our prayers for the girls screaming at passing cars to go hoarse, however, went unanswered.

Beer and Cupcakes wound up being a good enough bribe to get us 2 cars and 3 movers, so we got most everything moved on Saturday. Even though Ryan had some silly objection to drinking a diuretic while lifting heavy things on a hot sunny day. weirdo.

The Moving Fantasy: Our new apartment has a public deck right outside our bedroom, with a catwalk around to the kitchen door. Most things went in the kitchen door easily enough but that 90° turn wasn't going to happen with the bed frame. So we indulged every guy's fantasy when moving: we went in through the window.

At this point, we can do all the things that you do in an apartment, but we still have a lot of random stuff in boxes because we don't know where else to put them. We also have a bunch of Ikea furniture unassembled. When we finish that stuff, I'll post some pikchas.

    right! i rewrote that sentence like 3 times so i could fit her in, and then i forgot.
    beer + cupcakes + tacos = 3 movers, 2 cars, 1 painter :D
    our eating area will be fantastical. i’m still waiting to see if ikea made allen key wood screws for mounting it.
