Dis, dat and de utter ting
The move was a success! I never want to do that again. It's been 25 years since the last one, and if I have to do it in another 25, it will be too soon!
Nothing got broken and even the piano made the trip unscathed. My sister, Daughter-Type and her boyfriend helped unpack everything and set up the computer again. No internet until yesterday, though. But I was busy enough over the weekend that I really didn't miss it much. And I have Verizon now instead of Comcast. With a DVR!! All this new newfangled technology is blowing my mind. I have no clue what I need to start recording though. Everything I watch is either streaming in some way or with dvds. It's all so very exciting.
It feels strange not dealing with stairs every few hours, but nice. I can always climb the three flights to get up to my new place instead of using the elevator if I'm feeling nostalgic. I think I'm the youngest person in the building. It's a 55 and over place and I won't be 55 until the 18th. Still, they have a bunch of groups that get together in the evening, one of which knits and crochets. Next week I think I'll join them. The drive wasn't too bad this morning. I leave early enough so I miss all the awful morning rush, and I'm thinking the same will be true for the return trip.
So a major event and everyone has survived with all pieces intact! A glorious day indeed.

Friday night my feet hurt so bad. I got up to look for the Advil and realized I had left it at the house! Woops. But I'm settling in.
