Moving: Progress Report

My brother Kevin & I moved all of my furniture, boxes and stuff on Saturday, a long day of two trips, and MANY boxes (18 comic longboxes, and 10 boxes of paperbacks & hardcovers). Sunday and Monday I took my time doing the rest of the packing (all my kitchen stuff, and valuables like cds and tech) and final clean-up (bathroom, fridge, etc..). I slept on the carpet both nights (Sun & Mon) , rather than cram myself and my cat into the one finished room in the new place while work is going on.

Tuesday (yesterday) my brother & I brought the previous tenants' fridge down from the upstairs, and blasted it with the hose, cleaned it up, and brought it inside. This morning the bathroom's medicine chest went up, and an air conditioner was installed in the kitchen window. I still have no floors in the kitchen or living room, and no kitchen sink or working stove. And all this eating out, and driving to my parent's house to go online (job search, etc...) sucks.

More later...

Books

Since I am moving at the end of next week, I am going to do something I've never done before (and always wondered how many I own): count my books.

Fiction, non-fiction, science, history, art, etc..., I'll put a grand total here when I have finished boxing them all up, sometime in the next week or so.

Kayaking

Not much to say, just that I kayaked around the lake for about an hour, then did some "yardwork", and made a 'to-do' list for the WPMF. Plus, I had a Wachusett Nut Brown Ale, which kicked ass as usual!
