I managed to unpack the boxes in the kitchen last night. And as i carefully unwrapped each glass, plate and fragile item, it felt like Christmas but not quite.
And although the kitchen is bigger than our previous one, somehow it lacks storage space. But we managed to fit most of the things and having a cellar nearby makes it so much easier. J decided to move the fridge which made space for the dining table and bench we inherited from my sister.
The living room is nearly done, we're just waiting till we find an affordable sofa. So for now, our super comfy office chairs will have to do. We still have the other rooms to sort out but that will come in due time.
By the time we were done and were ready for bed, we were up again 2 hours later. I'm surprised J managed to wake up in time for work. Poor thing. But he had this brilliant idea that instead of waiting till Saturday to move out of the service apartment, he suggested we move tonight. In fact, in the next hour or two.
So yay! The move is finally coming to an end.
At least J will save on petrol and instead of the 25 minutes traveling time to get to work, it's replaced by only 8 minutes. Which means no more 5:30am wake up calls - it's now 6am. Yay for the extra 30 minutes of sleep!
And for me, no more coin operated laundry machines and having to carry everything for blocks. And no more metal pans that overheat and burn my food. No more freezing mornings because the insulation in the apartment is not that good.
And last but not least, our 5 weeks sleeping on 2 single super soft mattresses that aren't level with one another has come to an end. You have no idea how much i've missed my bed. Seriously. I think i hear my spine crying.
