Moving & New House Sneak Peek!
Most of you that read my blog regularly will know that I just moved. It's been really exciting but also stressful, as moving usually is, for several reasons:
- The house was getting painted while we were moving in making it so that we couldn't unpack 2 of the bedrooms.
- We cleaned a lot of it before moving in, but we got a coupon in the mail for professional cleaners and decided to set up a time for that to get to the things we didn't have time for.
- Carpet cleaners are coming this weekend so that limits the amount of unpacking we're doing upstairs (bookcases, desks, etc.) because we want as little to move around as possible when they come and I don't want books and decor pieces falling out/off of furniture.
- The washer and dryer have come twice and right now, we only have the washer (which we discovered has an issue so it may have to go back too). The dryer is supposed to be here Saturday but I think I'm gonna have to head to a laundromat because we're not going to make it until we have both here and working properly!
I'm the type of person that wants everything done right away, and we have quite a ways to go before we get everything looking the way we want it, but it's slowly coming together.
The two rooms I have pictures from were just painted and I'll share the colors in another post with before and after pictures. We've gotten rid of most of our boxes, but there's still a few hanging around...I'm going to try to keep up with posting, but it probably won't be as regular as usual until everything settles down a bit!
What have you guys been up to?
Congrats!! I'm like you--I want everything done IMMEDIATELY! We've moved so often (we rent, though, so most of our houses are 100% move in ready when we get there) that now I have a system to where most of our regular living spaces are 100% normal before we ever even go to bed the first night. I'm sure it'll be different when we actually own and have some things we can change! (My husband's job moves us pretty much every year--so right now it's just not smart of us to own). I LOVE your outfit at the beginning of the post!! <3
