Big Doin's Going On!

(Ok, now I really want to go back to Disney... our wake-up call by Mickey every morning had him saying something like, "...there's big doin's going on!")

Anyway... so last night the girls (Beck and Dodi) came over to help me move crap from the old apartment to the new apartment. We were able to move all the stuff in my old linen closet and my closet from the bedroom. Doesn't sound like much written outlike that, but believe me, it was a TON of stuff! We had some Chinese food and opened up our gifts to each other while we watched The Full Monty on HBO. So it was a pretty fun night. :) After they left I spent about an hour in the new apartment folding and hanging clothes and finding places in the different closets for all the crap that we brought over that night. Then I emptied out the bookcase in the living room in the old apartment as much as possible while I watched The Princess Bride on VH1.

So there's still a lot to do for the move. We still have to move all the furniture in the bedroom and the enitre living room, as well as the desk and all the stuff on the porch... But I don't think it should take too long. I'm hoping to move all the little stuff from the living room tonight, the dresser and nightstand (and possibly the bed), and the desk tonight. Then tomorrow I have the day off and so we'll be able to move furniture during the day, so we should be finished up with the actual dragging stuff down the hall and that leaves next week (when I pretty much have the whole week off of work) to scour out the old apartment and clean and organize the new one.

And it all needs to be done by New Year's Eve because we're hosting a little pre-going-out get together at the new apartment. Yay! I love parties! :) Alex and I really enjoy entertaining, and this will be the first actual party we'll be able to have. Very exciting. It'll be a short get together... probably only from about 8 till 10 or so and then we'll go out downtown to ring in the new year. But it should be a good time. I'm very excited! :)

But there's lots of work to do before then... and speaking of work, I probably should do some since I'm at work today (suck... I totally think today should be a half day).

Progress Report on the New Apartment...

So the painting is finished at the apartment! Yay! I'll post pictures as soon as I can... but probably not until after Monday because I've already unhooked the computer and the guy from Time Warner wouldn't be out until Monday to hook up the Road Runner.

We started to move stuff over to the new apartment last night. We moved pretty much the whole kitchen over and the dining room area too. We still have A LOT of stuff to move... the entire bedroom, the entire living room, the porch and the closets... It's a lot of stuff, but hopefully it shouldn't take too long. It'll be SO nice when everything is finally in the new place!!!

I wish that I was at home now moving stuff instead of working... but I'm not. And I should just get back to work. Sigh.
