It's over! well - phase 1 anyways

The move out of old 2BR into new 3BR has been completed. All that is left to do @ old is cleanup, shampoo (getting ChemDry out on Tues), and cutoff of utilities.

New place is unpacking... then vacuuming - which is doubly needed as it appears the prior tenants vacated right before I moved in... carpet not vacuumed nor shampooed, and several little things (screens missing or torn & MstrBath shower rod not attached) not done.

But all of my belongings are with me, the LR is almost unpacked to the point of fine-placement, and K's room is set up how I want, and MBR is mostly setup...though not much usable other than a toilet & bed :)

Oh - and I discovered that COMCAST should kiss my ass - they said neither of my boxes would work, nor my modem til they came out on Tuesday... so far, so good.

And I've discovered ANTS (my one critter phobia if in my home)....mom helped me break out the Borax in the bathroom & preventative in the pantry.

We'll see what happens.

Now to phase 2 - figuring out where to put things now that I have SPACE :) And continuing to ditch things I don't want/truly need via FreeCycle, the local selling-sister of Freecycle, and donations.

Anyone want sz 2-4T boys clothes XD

eta: if I have a beta for you (3 ppl that I see in my beta-mail-folder lol) - now that the bulk of the madness is over with, you should see turnaround during the week. Arte - you are not forgotten hon :) )

goddess bless freecycle. :) i love that joint.

try diatamacious earth (fucked if i can spell it), it's pet and kid safe, but it kills those lil' bastards. I had cockroaches, got rid of them pretty damn nicely. :D

I'm glad it went so well! Congrats on your new digs, and I hope you get rid of the ants ASAP (I hate those buggers, too). No, my kids are well out of those size clothes, but they're a great size - loads of people are looking for them, I'm sure they'll be gone very quickly.
