This Moving Stuff is HARD!!!

A quick post

 (now that we have internet thanks to a handy Time Warner guy who was here climbing everywhere for about 4 hours - he arrived right after the movers left)

Yesterday was one of the most exhausting days I've had in awhile, well since probably the last time I worked Fancy Flea with Suebee and Kathy.

Nope, yesterday was harder.

I took some pictures around the house before the chaos ensued.

In no particular order:

Dining/Living space

"Master Bedroom"

Mr. T's office - or as the movers referred to it, "The King's Room" - They obviously were unaware that I am referred to as "The Queen" around here.

Larger Bath

Family Room

Kitchen

Front Entry

Family Room beams

My Space! Also a guest room

Neat space-saving door

Sadie, conducting inspections

Back Patio

Cute little green gate

Panda conducting outdoor inspections

We are very pleased with our rental and it is even nicer than we remembered it from our tour through it.

Then....

The unloaders came.

Sadie: "What the heck is happening NOW?"

I'm not a person who deals with upheaval really well and well...let's just say my sense of humor was absent for a good part of the day.  Heh, heh.

Mr. Tennis worked feverishly to get his office up and running so he can start working. (What's that? We're supposed to be working?)

 And getting the TVs up and running.

I concentrated on making things looks somewhat familiar and comforting.

Got enough of the kitchen unpacked, with the help of The Maven who showed up for a few hours, to make my first dinner here. 

With a gas stove!  Never used one, but the meatloaf (comfort food) was edible.

I realize this morning that I am going to have to go at a slower pace. Hence me logging on here for a break and talking to my good friends and family.

I did get one little vignette set up, flowers compliments of my brother, Mr. Connor.  

They arrived last night as I was cooking dinner.  What a wonderful surprise from home.  

Thanks Richard.

I will be back soon with some progress reports.

We hope to get out and about this weekend a bit during the Labor Day events.

Bumby will be coming here with The Maven, Darcy and Stanley the Greyhound for the weekend.

The Writer and Sammy remain in Tampa/Charlotte covering the conventions.

So...

Will Stan and the Bostons like each other?

How much more unpacking will get done this week?

Will TBL and Mr. T assemble their bedframe soon, or will they just continue sleeping with the mattress on the floor like college kids?

Burning questions, I know, and ones I hope to have answers to.

AND, I hope to visit some blogs in between unpacking over the next week.  My commenting has been scarce and I appreciate all who have taken the time to come over here and leave such encouraging comments,
