Moving Day
Wednesday, 16. April 2008, 07:16:23
Everything is boxed or bagged and the movers are here, loading the truck. H is off at school, where today they are going on a field trip to the circus. So, she is bound to have a much more exciting day than I will.
Tony has taken the dogs on ahead to the apartment; then, he will return to help me direct things. So far it is going very well this time. We are using the same company we used last time, and I am hoping it goes as smoothly. The look of relief on their faces when they realized the washer and dryer didn't have to go (since we are moving to a fourth floor flat, after all) was priceless.
They have been here not quite half an hour and almost all the boxes from the living room--the bulk of the total--are gone. I am somewhat concerned that Tony might not have time to get back here before they are finished!
Anyway, it is a happy day. I am pleased we are headed to our new home. I am less pleased with the prospect of cleaning the old place, but will survive--that is one of the perks of living in small dwelling spaces--it takes less time to make and keep them tidy.
Appropos of nothing, this is a pic of Seamus I took yesterday. I love how his head is too big for the frame.

I love that picture. It's difficult to really get a sense of Seamus' scale until you see something like that.
