We moved on Saturday and now we’re trying to whittle away at the maze of boxes in our apartment. I’ve also spent some time restoring the old apartment back to its former self. Moving made me realize two different things. 1. We are dirty dirty people. I swept up at the old place after the movers left and there was so much dust. Ew. I’ve already put a call in to a cleaning lady and sworn myself to a strict dusting and mopping schedule. And 2. We have WAY TOO much stuff. I’ve decided to put one thing up on Craigslist and Ebay everyday until I’m satisfied. Simplify simplify.
I’m taking this week off from blogging until we get settled. I’ll be back in October.
This picture is of our new bathroom. {It’s huge!}

i too was disgusted at how much stuff we had. jared has boxes and boxes of old things from high school etc. it’s ridiculous. although for every ‘memory’ box he has i have an extra box of clothes/shoes. maybe i’ll put one of jared’s ‘memory’ boxes for sale everyday on ebay. good idea.

Moving is not much fun, but it’s nice to start fresh. It’s so freeing to let go and simplify.

Hey, thanks for posting the name of the artist that did your wedding painting (on the hallway post); I love his website! You are a serious multi-tasker! Good luck with the move and everything; I can’t wait to see pics of the new apt. I bet it’ll be amazing!
