Accumulation

Moving has a way of helping a person know just how much stuff he has. What initially might seem like a quick, easy move from one place to another can quickly turn into several hours and multiple loads back and forth between places.

So that was my day yesterday. I should say our day, since a couple of friends helped us. But everything big is moved over (beds, table, chest, etc.). After getting the freezer over and plugged in, I reached to turn on the lights and found the power had been turned off. Fortunately, the city was responsive in getting it turned back on, since we had paid all appropriate deposits and fees.

So we slept under our own (rented) roof last night. It was very nice. After making the beds, we all basically crashed into them.

Today the unpacking begins.
