M-day

But not as in the day of the week...as in change of location day!

That was yesterday.  I cooked supper in the new house last night, and we all woke up in the new house this morning.  Seems our friends are very excited.  Don't get me wrong, we're happy, we're thankful for all friends who had time on very short notice to lift and carry furniture, and for the friend who borrowed us some temporary countertop that he's not using just now.  Along with that, we feel a little relieved to be into the house in fall so we have time to do a few other very necessary things before winter. 

There are still lots of little evening projects and many of our conveniences have an inconvenient element today--and will continue to for a couple of weeks. We're going back hourly to the "old house" to collect more things that weren't in the first batch to migrate.  However, it's unanimous, we'd much rather be in the new house with some of our things than still in the old one with all our belongings. It's SO VERY good to have come to this stage in the journey.  Amazingly, the move was only 2 days off our ambitious, optomistic target date.  Lowering our standards of what consitutes "done" helped! :-)

Hope I can get some pics up soon for those who can't come to see it!
