Not dead, just moving

Run-down of recent events:
Wednesday, May 23rd: Pack! Pack, I say!
Thursday, May 24th: The movers arrived at 9:30am. The movers finished unloading everything into our new house shortly before noon. AND they didn't break anything! Talk about some kick-ass movers! We still left a lot of little stuff at the old house, though (mainly pantry stuff), so our work is far from over.
Friday: The washer & drier were delivered, but the drier is the wrong color. They brought a blue one. They'll bring a white one to us later, but left the blue one so I could do some freakin' laundry. By the by, I LOVE these machines. Holy crapulence.
Saturday: Ran out to the old house to grab some pantry stuff. The cable man arrived and gave me my blessed internet connection. Yay!
Sunday: Went to Mark's to watch the Monaco race. Boooooring. Ran out to old house to get more food items. Then returned to our new house and cleaned like the dickens! I unpacked all of the kitchen items and then ran to Target to buy a new lamp because ...
Monday: Mom arrived!!! Mom is here for 5 days to see the house & to help with the final details of the move. She loves the house, of course.
Tuesday: Back-breaking labor. The old house has to be cleaned within an inch of its life (or within an inch of our lives, whichever comes first) in order for us to get back our enormous deposit. Tim has to work, of course, but Mom is here to help! Yay Mom! We took a break to eat lunch at the local patisserie/bistro and to stop into the little yarn store so Mom could meet the owner. But other than that, we spent many an hour scrubbing and vacuuming and scrubbing some more and we STILL are not done! Ugh.

So you see, my life is just waaaaaaay too exciting to be posting anything on my blog right now. :P
