My Great Trek

This weekend I moved into the new flat. I knew that I was going to have to move this weekend, but I never imagined that it would be such a huge task. At least all my things are in the flat now, but I haven’t even unpacked half of it! I will continue tonight, if I have the energy.

At least all the big furniture has been moved, and I now have a louge suite for guests to sit on instead of folding chairs. Also got a dining set to eat supper at, which I just LOVE. Its so cozy :) The beds are obviously also in, but I might want to swop the single bed in the spare bedroom for a sleeper sectional – those are really convenient in a small flat, yet at the same time you can still receive guests to sleep over.

My first night there was OK. I wasn’t scared or anything, but it was really hot, and I struggled to sleep. Once I fell asleep I awoke every so often, wondering if I had overslept (even though I use an alarm).

This morning was the first time I had drive from there to work, and it was a nightmare. Its 5km’s further than my previous place, but it took me 3 times as long to get to work – I drove an hour and half!!! :( Tomorrow I’ll try leaving home even earlier, and maybe use a different route. I hated spending half an hour in traffic before, but this is just insane!!

For now I gotta get some work done, there are some important things that require my urgent attention.

Hope you all had a good weekend, and that the week ahead won’t be too rough! ;)

Sounds like a Seattle commute! I hope you find a quicker route.Moving is always such a pain–take care of yourself, and be well.

Woo, welcome to my world. I travel and an hour and a half every freaking single day to and from work but at least my place is cheap where I am and it is big. I have lived closer and paid twice as much for twice as less space. You’ll figure out when the right time to go is to miss most of it. I can get there in an hour or less on some days :)

My sympathies on having to move! Congrats on moving into your new place. Huh… this has been one bipolar comment so far. I really, really hate moving! But, I love living in a new place. Does that make sense?

Hope you get everything settled in soon. :)

Moving would be great if it wasn’t for the packing, lifting, sorting, unpacking , cleaning up and the general confusion that surrounds it…Hope you get settled in soon>>>good luck in the new place!!
