So we're unpacking and setting up the new place and it's working out rather well. We're also getting rid of a lot of odds and ends that we don't need or use. It won't be a spartan place, but we also don't want it cluttered. Melanie is excited about the extra cabinet space along with the extra closet in the living room. Despite the extra storage, we still have to get rid of some items. Friday, the 6-drawer chest shows up (No, the chest is NOT named Friday, well, maybe it is now.) to round out our bedroom furniture and allows us to finish putting clothes away. (Melanie has been doing all the clothes and I thank her greatly for it.) The coaxial cable is tacked along the ceiling so that it's out of the way and I was able to get a white one for the sake of aesthetics. Cable is getting fixed tomorrow and I'm hoping to hit the DVD case and fix it before I fill them up with movies. After we take all the trash out and recycle the boxes and find a place for all our tubs, our apartment should shortly become a home. Scribbles needs to learn that he won't always have a person home with him as Melanie comes to base to volunteer and (soon hopefully) work. He's a whiner but we don't want to let him loose in the house while we're gone until we finish unpacking and doggy proof the place. Scritch/Skritch/Pounce the kitten is awesome and has taken to the litter box like and old tomcat. As soon as he learns to let us sleep, he'll be the perfect pet, IMO. Pictures will be forthcoming.
