Our belongings arrived on Saturday! It was an eventful day to say the least. I am still sick so i just sat on a chair on the porch and checked off the boxes checklist as they came in. My dad directed them where to put things. Luke and our friend Eddie helped haul in some of the stuff. We have a HUGE "entertainment center" that is SOLID WOOD. We inherited this from Jake's Grandma Neville. It seperates into two pieces but after much effort they were only able to move up the bottom piece :( Jake and some others are going to try and go up and over the balcony this wkend with the top half because I LOVE THIS PIECE OF FURNITURE SO MUCH!
I have been working as hard as possible to unpack everything. Being sick slows down the process quite a bit. I want to get it all done so when jake gets here our home is all put together! I know it is a lofty goal but I set it myself and the other reason is that the boxes are driving me INSANE! I don't do well with a messy home!
On a side note the unpacking is quite a task because the lovely packers in monterey wrapped EVERY SINGLE INDIVIDUAL THING in thick PAPER! not just one sheet per item... about TEN sheets of paper per item PLUS TAPE on EVERYTHING! So what should have taken them ONE DAY TO PACK and ABOUT 50 BOXES took them 2 days and 163 boxes! a little over kill if you ask me! They get paid by the pound so I think it was their goal to make a ton of money off the pounds of tape and boxes and paper!
Jake graduates on THURSDAY! YAY! I left our camera with him but I will post pictures ASAP!
