Okay, now this is cool.
I know Craig! THE Craig, of Craigslist. This is (obviously) an exaggeration, but hell, he saw my blog through referrers and quotes me on HIS blog. That’s too cool.
I was going to erase that second “cool” and type something better, something more clever, but look, I’m on hour thirty-two of being awake, with a 1.5 hour nap fit in last night between (old) house cleaning and work, so there’s no being smart/witty today.
Only this:
I am done moving. Hall-ay-joo-yah.
My new place looks fabulous.
I’ll show pics later, maybe Saturday. I can’t imagine getting more motivation right now.
My DSL works.
My TiVo works.
It’s pouring, off and on, great shakes of thunder and lighting, somethin’ we don’t get much of round here, so it’s good sit-on-my-couch-and-knit weather. And I’m SO excited to do that, eight days after officially starting the move. Gonna knit. Yep.
I am done moving.
I am so glad.
(But you do deserve a picture, so here’s a Before shot. That over there to the right by the chair is where the yarn center was destined to plants its fiberous roots and grow. After’s a comin’.)
Oh, and Wendy’s post yesterday (Wednesday) killed me. I swear, darlin, I WAS packing and moving and cleaning and sweating and SWEARING a hell of a lot. But I’m done. Done done done done done…..
Tee hee hee 😉
Glad you’re all moved in! Lucy and I were thinkin’ about ya!
oh yea baby-doll!! So glad you can relax (at least for a minute)! Now you can ‘kick your feet up onto your new Ikea table while sitting on your relatively new loveseat’ and spend some Q.T. with your friend Cromarty!
Have a cuppa tea and pat yourself on the back.
I love that photo! I can’t wait for the After shots — I bet it’s so cozy and so you! Relax and knit, and get some sleep, too.
How are the kitties adjusting? (Bea poked me and asked me to ask that.)
Woohoo–congrats to you! I love that just-moved-in-I’ve finished-cleaning-the-old-place feeling. Time for a glass of wine methinks. 🙂 Can’t wait to see the pics.
Oh Happy New Home, Rachael! Congratulations on getting everything done; it’s horrible work moving, isn’t it! I’m glad you’re finished.
P.S. A mention on Craig’s blog…it’s almost too cool!
Love the red! Going to be such a warm home for you and kitties. So glad to hear you DID it!! Whoo HOO!!
Yay! Yay! Yay! Congrats on a quick move and wishing you a happy settling in, and a lot of sleep. 🙂
Yahoo!! You are a moving inspiration. I may be relocating this summer and now feel so much better about the whole thing. Your place is wonderful, warm and cozy. Pat yourself on the back and get some well deserved sleep.
Yay Rachael! I hope your place feels as nice to be in as it looks in that photo. 🙂
Welcome home. May this be the first of many fabulous hang-around-and-knit days.
Congratulations, you’re done! Now it’s down to the organizin’…should I have mentioned that? Get some SLEEP, girl, and knit a lot. Then think about where stuff should go. Love the picture, with yer cute face in the corner.
welcome home
Hooray!!! Good for you. Can’t wait to see more pictures.
Get some sleep too k?
Hooray for being settled!
Hope you are getting some rest and relaxation!
The “before” shot already looks great. Can’t wait to see the “after”.
Craigslist is awesome! I’ve actually met craig
(at a craigslist happy hour I’m ashamed to say, but in our defense, we were in the neighborhood…) I doubt I left much of an impression on him & certainly nothing to blog about, good for you!
Congrats on being all moved into your new place. I hope some of you good apartment mojo rubs off on me. I’ll be apartment hunting this weekend.
YEAH! I’m so glad to hear that the move is over 🙂 the new place looks awesome too! I’ve always wanted hardwood floors …. one day 🙂
Thank goodness the trauma of the move is now OVER!!! You are going to love it. It looks fabuloso, and the yarn center? Focal point of the whole place! I think that is good feng shui for sure! And I am so impressed that you know THE Craig.
What a nice apartment, and the neighborhood is ideal. Congrats on the moving part…let’s see the decorating…you may want to TiVo C. Lowell…heee
Whew! Thank goodness that’s over. Now you can relax and enjoy your new digs. Happy knitting and relaxing. We got rained and snowed on yesterday from that storm; also good knitting weather.
What a nice place to live! I’m very glad for you. I still need to find my new place to live.. :/ Good luck for you 🙂
Craig is a good man who helped for a lot of people to find jobs and apartments to live. You are lucky man! you could see him 🙂
