Update

I’ve uploaded some more house pictures to the flickr account to your left.  Just click on any one of them and you’ll be able to see them all.  Not too much is new here.  I’m enjoying the new place and am, for the most part, moved in.  I think it’s likely that I’ll continue unpacking boxes for the rest of my life, but I have the essentials unpacked.

I’ve been moved in for just over two weeks now.  It’s funny – I remember looking at the house and thinking, wow, it’s really move-in ready.  I can’t really think of anything that I even need to do to feel comfortable living there, this is great.  Well, well, well.  My dad and mom will attest to something slightly different.  We spent the first weekend (at least my mom & I) doing some serious deep cleaning.  The refrigerator, the stove, and the entire house.  And this followed me coming down on week nights after work the week prior and investing some time with my then best friend, soft scrub.  It was DIRTY!  Anyway, my mom and I cleaned like wild women while my dad fixed the plumbing, re-grouted parts of the shower, sanded down the shower window (who puts a wood window in a shower?!), tore out nasty shelving, and probably countless other things that I’ll never even know about.

The inside is now comfortable to live in, but I see projects!  I think however, it’s time to move outside.  The yard needs some sprucing and i’ll have to get it in shape before things start really blooming and blossoming.  It will be fun though – I’m looking forward to rolling up my sleeves with this one.  Talk to you all soon.
