Week 1 in progress
This is day 4 in the new house, and I totally admit to being exhausted.
There was much painting with jasra Friday. Then after she left I painted the cathedral ceiling-height walls in my bedroom. At this point my room is done as far as painting other than touching up the trim.
Saturday crazybone helped us move a ton of boxes despite the fact that I am a flake and technology hates me. Getting through all the large furniture with my sister's truck was amazing and made this a lot more managable. Also my family drives me crazy. (Family members on the f-list should know that this was a specific incident only I am referring to.)
Sunday cintyber, salvbard, and I took a trip to Home Depot to get more painting supplies. It is a good thing I really like both color and painting. By this point my feet started to hurt most of the time from all the standing between painting, packing and moving.
Also I went with Chiquita to see the Openair Circus. We had gone specifically because falathwen and company were involved, but it was also nice to see a number of friendly faces including roozle.
Today was more painting with jasra. We did a coat of paint in both Chiquita's and cintyber's rooms. Also I am almost done painting the table and chairs to better match the kitchen.
For now though I need to take a break from painting and unpacking to work on my "real" job. Tomorrow my last week of Summer session starts up and will finish Thursday. Then I will have a short period before the Fall starts back up, in which I need to prep my syllabi and get the house in order. Busy!
