So I lied.....I was able to get back to post. We are all moved in. Yesterday some friends loaded up their truck with the rest of Michael's stuff and brought it all over. The only left to unpack is all of Michael's hanging stuff in his car. It's so wierd moving into a new place. The kitchen is gorgeous, but without storage. The guest room has all the "stuff" in it right now. I'm hoping that while i'm home, Michael will take the initiative and go through it all. It's mostly his stuff anyway. I still don't have a dresser so I'm going on a month of living out of my suitcases. We're hoping to go get some furniture tonight and tomorrow.
Today is Michael's 28th birthday. He said it's the first one in 6 years where he has someone to celebrate it with. So here are our plans for the evening, dinner out somewhere and furniture shopping!!! He's actually pleased with that.
My mom called me on moving day. It was so funny! My parents have helped me move both times, first Nutley and then Bloomfield, and this time they weren't there. It was a little emotional for me the night before, but all in all I did well. Michael had to move the fridge to plug it in and I had a "mom" moment. I checked to make sure the floor was clean underneath and it was!!! For those of you who know my mom, you may chuckle at that. So our house is looking like a house. We have 4 pictures of family with us, I put a wedding picture on the fridge, and Mhairi is also on the fridge!!!
So that's life right now. We'll have our first weekend in our new home. Maybe I'll even get breakfast in bed!!!! :) One can always wish!! Until next week, I love and miss you all. I can't believe I'll be home in 5 days!
