Now that I've cleared that up, I have so much to fill you in on! On Thursday, September 25th, Matt passed the last piece of his last training checkride (aka final exam flight), yaaaaaaaaay! So from there, the packing began. And boy did we pack. And pack and pack and pack. Then finally on Tuesday morning we picked up our UHaul, loaded the truck (and loaded and loaded and loaded) and by Wednesday afternoon we were finally on the road to Clovis (Matt in the UHaul and then me, Ethan, Beaker and Natty all in my Escape).
Goodbye old home!
Hello new home!
After getting some major help from a few friends, we finished unloading the truck on Thursday, and that meant it was time to start unpacking. I'd like to say, now a week later, we're done with this phase, but ha. No. We have made a ton of progress, but we definitely still have a few boxes in the garage that need to be unpacked. We also haven't really "set up" any of the rooms. It's more just like things are placed in different rooms that are livable for now until we get to buy new furniture and really set up the house the way we want to. The only purchases we (I use the word "we" loosely) have made so far are a fancy new gas grill, shelves for the garage and a lawn mower. You see why I use the word "we" loosely, lol. Do all of these things benefit me? Absolutely. Do any of these things excite me? Not particularly.
Anyway, that's pretty much where we're at now. Matt went back to work this week and now with internet back in my life I should be able to get a little work done here and there when Ethan is otherwise occupied. Oh, and speaking of Ethan, he is doing great! Other than a little face-meets-hardwood-floor incident yesterday, he seems to be loving the new house and is adjusting really well. He'll start daycare early next month, but until then it's just lots of Mommy/Ethan time. :)
