Endless Unpacking

Boy, oh boy.  We had a mess of stuff and boxes filing into our house on the day the movers arrived.  It was all welcomed as we were over the air mattress.  
 There was stuff strewn about everywhere with very little rhyme or reason for its placement.  Even though all boxes were labeled by the rooms from which they were packed, this is a whole new house with less rooms and a different place for everything.
The movers arrived around 9:00am and were finished unloading and assembling of the big furniture around 4:00.  They asked if there was anything else they could do, but I felt it totally unnecessary for them to actually unpack the boxes as I had no idea where they should put things.  So I was left with A LOT of boxes to unpack.  Eric was in the office and asked me how it was going.  We had been longing for a little comfort, consistency, and structure to our empty chaotic house.  I was trying to warn him not to be too excited about coming home to comfort, consistency, and structure so I sent him this video.



I am happy to say that exactly two weeks and two days after they arrived, we officially have unpacked every box.  Now the daunting task of getting everything arranged and finding it all a home within our home.  Our first visitor arrives next week.  Nothing like a deadline for me to get things done!  Pictures coming soon of our comfort, consistency, and structure.
