We survived yet another move

We are moved in! I don't have my computer set up here yet, so I'm using Shawn's laptop while he and Ed are working on setting up the dryer. Can I just say how hilarious things have been around here watching Shawn being Mr. Handyman? I just heard him say, "This is what drives me crazy. I have to go to Ace Hardware every day for SOMETHING!" Spoken like a true home owner. I guess the tube he got to run from the dryer to the gas hook-up has two males and he needs a male and a female or some crazy thing like that. Who knew pipes had gender?

The three of us slept in the new house for the first time last night. I know I was exhausted and slept like a baby. Inara did great in her new room too. She didn't wake up once during the night. Yay! We had one snaffuh last night. I didn't want to tell Shawn as he was stressing moving things over, but I noticed we weren't getting any hot water in the kitchen. I then noticed the same thing in the bathroom. We showered at the other house, so I didn't bring it up until later. He got ticked at first because we just had the plumbers here. I told him not to worry about it and would call my dad in the morning. When I spoke with Pop, he told me how to check to make sure the water heater was on. The damn on/off switch on the heater is so small you practically need a magnifying glass to find it. I switched it on and within half an hour we had hot water. Thank the lord cuz I know Shawn was going to have a fit if we had to call the plumbers out again. Those bills are racking up fast.

As for all our stuff, we've got pretty much everything moved over here. Now that's not to say everything is where it goes of course. We've got boxes stacked in the single car garage and random boxes throughout the house. Furniture is pretty much in its appropriate room though, so that's a bonus. Since my back is still a bit sore, I will be taking things slow this week. I'm going back to the other house to get some things we left behind, like bathroom items, food in the fridge and freezer, etc. Hopefully the dresser will arrive tomorrow, so I can at least get my clothes off the floor. I also need to go buy a curtain for Inara's bedroom. This house has all blinds and it gets pretty bright in here in the morning, so we're hoping if her room is a bit darker, she will sleep past 5:30am. I'll write more later once Shawn gets my computer hooked up. A special thank you to our movers, Marco, Brian and Thane, who is the biggest trooper considering he just moved us 5 months ago. I'm glad to hear that he thought this was a simple move. Heck, anything is a simple move after our move from hell from CA.
