The first half of September was pretty non-eventful as we were still in home purgatory. But by the middle of the month, things started moving again and we had way too much to do. Everyday there was something to do to get our new home into shape, either it was something we had to schedule and arrange with external parties, or just something we had to do ourselves. Here’s a quick list I came up with:

  • Meeting lawyers & getting keys
  • Cleaning
  • Getting appliances delivered
  • Getting windows measured, picking out blinds, getting them installed
  • Moving our belongings in
  • Getting internet setup
  • Unpacking
  • Shopping for groceries, household supplies, etc

Anyways, it was a lot of this type of stuff and no real down time. In addition to all this work, we also booked our winter and long weekend trips because prices were going up.

It also seemed to rain an unseasonably amount, although perhaps that is because I paid more attention to it as rain causes our lot to become muddy and difficult for moving. That pretty much sums up my month – not moving, not moving, moving, moving.
