The Move

The move went extremely smoothly. The movers came Saturday and unloaded everything we owned in two hours – YAY TROSA! Grammie and Grandpa kept Kate and Max entertained in Greensboro until the evening and then we introduced them to their new home and room. They are staying in the same room for now and their playroom is attached via a jack-n-jill bathroom. Kate already knows the way and Max loves to follow Kate so it works out well. Grammie spent Sunday and Monday entertaining the kids and sorting toys and books. Grandpa was Mr. Handyman and accomplished a lot including the assembly of Kate and Max’s bins and easel. Peter worked feverishly on his kitchen – sorting everything into just the right drawer, cabinets, and pull-out for cooking readiness. I worked methodically, one room at a time, sorting, then arranging, then stacking and unstacking, organizing and reorganizing until everything was just right or until I did it over again the next day! We managed to empty all boxes (my only measurement of accomplishment) by Monday. I have spent most of the week re-reorganizing closets, hanging out with Jenn and Coby (whom we missed dearly the past few weeks), hanging pictures/art, enjoying our new washer/dryer, meeting the neighbors, and gathering items we need.

Our hiccups include the fire set Saturday night in the oven (I am not mentioning any names but it was not me), Time Warner Cable (I do not know where to begin), the coffee pot that sprung a leak Sunday morning resulting in a meltdown, and Kate whom we found half way up the stairs unattended…
