Moved.

May 27th, 2010

Well, May 3rd has come and gone and we’re going on our third week at our new house. The move went fantastically well thanks to the help of many friends and family, out of our old place and into the new within 3 hours.

Things are slowly getting back to normal. We have a great deal of space here at the new place, but we still lack alot of things like shelving, which in order to be organized is a must. We’re planning a trip to Ikea for Sunday, that should hopefully solve the storage issue. Megan had a week off after our move, so while I was at work – she spent the days cleaning, painting and returning things to order. During this week, we had the help of our good friend Breha come up to assist Meg with the painting duties and man, she’s a keeper. That girl can PAINT!

The week also brought the arrival of a swanky new LG stainless french-door fridge. The old one was at least 20yrs+ and quite small, so it was our first purchase for the new place (besides paint and cleaning supplies). We’ve yet to purchase any new furniture.  My dad and I are currently in the process of mudding the drywall in the lower basement so I can do a re-location of my office space. The basement offers more room, a cooler environment (as we’re sans central AC at the moment) and well, those two things alone sold me. We managed to get a steal of a deal on a new TV, so our den/living-room is tricked out with a new 50″ plasma hanging on the wall serving up our TV/movie watching extravaganzas.

There’s lots to be done around the yard. We have a wee-bit of a dandelion problem, which the new Scott’s EcoSense Weed B Gone seems to be tackling well so far. We need some fence repairs and have grand plans to tear down our ‘deck’ and build something new this summer. Needless to say, lots to do. Anyone care to help?
