4 nights already slept in the new home 🙂 And very well, with 2 nights being quite restful.
Although there are still numerous appointments to be made with contractors for necessary touch-ups, we are gradually settling in. The kitchen was the first area to be unpacked... I've realized I’m missing a drawer for cooking and other utensils.
I’m still hesitant to start cooking because there are so many user manuals to read first.
The dishwasher baskets in my old one were better...
I wore out my mother’s mop; there’s still dust on the tiles everywhere. I’m going to buy a new one for both of us 🙂 The freezer’s contents are all on the floor since the furniture intended for that space is still stuck in the far corner of the study. But the study is full of moving boxes at the front.
The stairs still have temporary steps – a cool shabby style 😀
Upstairs in the hallway, the bare screed floor is exposed – we’ll lay the carpet only after the stair installers have finished.
Small paintbrushes are waiting to be used for wall repairs.
Our receiver cannot handle being switched on and off with a single switch that controls the TV and other devices; the picture has a yellow tint 🙁
When I look outside, all I see is sand, sand, and more sand... and weeds and mortar residues.
There isn’t much left in the fridge – I haven’t left the house much today because of scheduled phone calls.
Moving in is just the beginning of a long process! But I’m happy!
