I'm almost unpacked!
Most of Greg's stuff is put away, that lucky duck. Unfortunately, I had more stuff still at my aunt's and my grandmother's which I brought up here the other day. And I still have more down there. Nothing imperative, but it will get up here in time.
Greg left this afternoon for vacation with his family for a week. So I'm alone until next Saturday. I'm definitely going to miss him, and it will be weird to be in the apartment all by myself.
I have been laying on the couch ALL day, watching Top Model. Normally, I wouldn't have spent that much time in front of the TV. HOWever. Something is up with my knee - it's sore, and a bit swollen. Everyone assures me that it's just from moving boxes, lifting, pushing, pulling, DRIVING etc. I am trying to accept that and just rest it. I did see the dr. at the walk-in clinic in Westchester near my grandmother's - they took xrays and said everything looks okay, to stay off it and ice it. So I've been icing it all day, 20 minutes on, 20 minutes off. If it's not better in a week, I have to follow up. Here's hoping I wake up tomorrow feeling better. This is the first day I've had since it started bothering me so actually sit and rest. So sitting and resting is what I am doing. This is KILLING me, as there is so much to be done in this apartment and so much I could put away. And I hate sitting doing nothing. HATE it.
Even thought we're not all unpacked, I love the apartment. I cannot wait to be all unpacked! But I am going to try really hard to keep off my knee for at least the next two days. Once my Harry Potter book arrives that should be fairly easy!
Last night was a really good night. Greg and I went to dinner at his friend Jamie and Luke's house - they were the ones who actually lived in this apartment before us, and how we ended up in here. They've got this great house now, and we had such a yummy dinner. Pasta, sausage, asparagus, and a salad. A salad that Jamie put strawberries in, and it was SO GOOD. So yummy, I absolutely loved it. I will definitely put strawberries into my salads in the future. Yum. They are great people and it was just such an enjoyable evening.
I'm almost through a whole season of Top Model. Hopefully there's better TV on later. And I can sleep tonight...I feel like we've been going, going, going for the last week and haven't stopped. Tonight will be a welcome break. And I cannot wait for my Harry Potter book TOMORROW!
