No more moving OUT we are moving IN, and yes I still have organizing to do and sorting, the out part of it all is done.. YAY! (Yes this is the Big YAY!) so long to the old place, so now onward to settling in.. Booda has been settling in for a long time now by his book. I am sure they wonder why I am taking so long :)

The Air Dry Method

Some nearby folks drying their jeans.

I use the air dry method for the dishes too! :)

The Moving Process..

...truly sucks! Wow what a chore, even more for me since I have literally walls of books and things (things things).

Mainly art and design related but a lot of personal stuff from the past and present. Dust has settled on a lot of it so its gets cleaned up on the balcony..

and then moved back inside. (These shelves are already filling up!) Ugh. Its too much stuff to just box up and say to a moving person, okay take it away! If we did that there would literally be no room to move! I'm more venting than complaining of course, I am happy to be doing this, but will be even happier once its done!! :)

The cats are of course having no trouble getting cozy no matter what :)

I added a link to my Twitpic pages over on the side here, I snap pix with the little cell phone and they get sent there. I have a bunch more things that show up on a semi-daily basis. One sad set, a deli that was the corner staple to us in the old neighborhood- they let the Poodle in all the time, has burned down. Several other businesses were lost (no one seriously hurt though!!) but its sad to see a huge section of the old neighborhood gone. I hope they can all rebuild.

FLOORS! :)

It's even prettier in person.

We had Two Boots Pizza on the balcony after we assembled ( i held nuts and bolts and provided moral support :) ) the little Bed Bath and Beyond table. It has a mosaic top and is very cheery!
Rick set up an impromptu "entertainment center" so I could watch the finale of Project Runway :)

.. and doorknobs! I love the loopy handles because you can open them with an elbow if your arms are full of purring cats.. :)
(We got them from Home Depot and they are black with distressed copper colored detail, so pretty!)

Under that..

Is a floor!

Other bits..

What the "bones" of the soundproofing looked like.
(It just looks like a wall now!)

Our new ceiling fan

The treehouse in-the-tree-view is budding again :)

Patches is also "building". He has quite a squirrelie fortress built!

Have to admit..

Seeing the place torn up is sad but it's all just the process of moving forward and is going to be great once all this is over... which could be tomorrow!!!! :) *cross fingers!*
Some pix..
All the innards..

Peek at the floor already down.. needs some sweeping but still looks lovely!

Last hallway leading to the back room, and that back room- is all that's left to do..

We'll see what happens tomorrow :)- or actually Today! Just noticed the time here :)

Demolition!
