Moving was very easy - took about three hours and four and a half trips or so for four people. The bigass truck really helped! Afterwards there was pizza and beer! The pizza was from Antonio's, which makes it extra win, and it will probably be dinner when I go home. To the new home. The one I hope to keep for the rest of my stay here, anyway.
After lunch, I started unpacking a few things - mostly kitchen and bathroom, i.e. nothing I'll just have to move in order to paint I am looking forward to a house with some colour! Okay, possibly a *lot* of colour, as most of the shades I've picked out for my place are ery bold warm colours - brick orange/red for the living room, with a mandarin orange-y gold for trim and the hall, a nice deep blue kitchen (complimentary colours-ish - also my linoleum is blue :p) and bathroom, a pumpkin pie shade for my bedroom, and a deep green for my study. I doubt martha Stewart would approve but hey, raise your hand if you don't care! :D
So this afternoon I've been cleaning out the old place. I vacuumed the carpets, cleaned the closest and all the cupboards and cabinets, washed the windows (except the exterior where there was a screen because I couldn't figure out how to take the windows out -_- I also cleaned the fridge and spot washed walls and window frames, etc.
Major things I still need to do are:
Oven
Linoleum in kitchen and bathroom
More spot washing of walls
Counters
Sinks
I think that is all of it. Unless I want to start on things like washing all the light fixtures and doing more than a half-assed job at cleaning the mini blinds. Oooh we hates that! Now I have to decide if I want to go get oven cleaner now, or wait and just do that tomorrow. I think I will, though. I'll give it a spray and leave it until tomorrow. It's been a loooong day!
ETA: Fuckin' Texas! It started raining, and *then* it clouded over! Right when I wanted to go (that is walk) home >:P Hopefully it won't last long - I'm getting hungry!
