The moving part of moving is officially over. Matt and I finished getting everything out of my apartment Sunday. We spent several hours Saturday and Sunday scrubbing the place down. We dropped the keys off at the office Sunday night with only a few reminiscing tears. It is wonderful to be done with it. Now we are concentrating most of our free time on unpacking. Although at the this point it is literally just unpacking. It mostly consists of Matt and I opening boxes and then walking and dropping them into the room where they should live. As soon as we can get the living room rid of boxes then we can start to organize the rest of the house. It is just too much to try and do the whole apartment at the same time. So, for the time being, the place looks a little chaotic. We even left work "early" yesterday at 5pm and spent the night unpacking after we cooked dinner together. Not much of a holiday but time well spent I think.
Its going to be a short week for us anyway since this weekend Matt's best friend is getting married. We are flying out to Chicago on Thursday but the wedding is in Indiana. We're both really sad because we have to cut our trip short. We had originally intended to spend a few days in Michigan with Matt's family. Due to my aforementioned new grueling work schedule and Matt's new project for Sushmita's paper we really just can't afford to take the time off. Just thinking about it makes me want to cry. I was really looking forward to seeing where Matt grew up and all the places he's told me about. He's consoled me by pointing out that we have the rest of our lives to get there and that now is just not the right time. I'm lucky that he's so practical.
