The moving is done... now, the CLEANING! 17 months ago

The move to my folks’ place for the month or so before we take possession of our new Cohousing home is finally done.

We BIG TIME OWE Pascal and Darcy for helping us out! Aimée pinched a nerve in her back a right before the move, and so was unable to do any heavy lifting, and much of our furniture requires two people, so there’s no way we could have done it without them.

The cats are slowly acclimatizing to the new place (Mo, our portly beige fella is still growling at the other cats a bit, and trying to settle in, the other two are in pretty good spirits (though still a bit scared), and curiously poking around.

It feels wonderful to be in limbo: All our real stuff is in boxes and stored in the garage, so once the massive clean we have to do tomorrow is done, we get to just hang out for a month out here pretty much, and get used to be this much further out from the city (far enough South that if you take a wrong turn trying to get onto the highway, you can very easily end up at the border crossing by accident).

Once the cleaning is done, I think it will be wonderfully fun setting up shop here, and getting my write on, as well as finally getting some video work done.



Comments:

Great that the packing phase is over. The anticipation to the new life ahead must be exciting.

Yes indeed!

Totally exciting yes! We’re sun burned and groggy from two days of clean-up, but enjoying the present state of limbo, and looking very much forward to life in our new home!
