We had to buy a mailbox and attach it to an existing post so our mail could start being delivered. Our neighbor let us use part of a new board he attached to the existing cross piece. It was nice to meet him. All three of our Simple Box containers are being delivered today. Our kids are arriving this weekend to help us unload them. Soon I’ll be saying things like: “Why didn’t I get rid of that?”, “I can’t believe I bothered packing that”, “I was wondering where I packed that”, “Hello old friend”, “I don’t even fit in that anymore, why did I pack it?”, “Where in the world will we put that?” and last but not least, “I’m happy to have my stuff all in one place again”.
Thursday is internet hookup day. I will still be scarce for a while.
Ugh! Unpacking is the worst! But having all your things together AND getting internet hookup is great.
May it go well with you!
…the view from your mailbox looks great.
Look at that view!
Look at that view from your mailbox! Wow. Have fun with the unpacking….I chuckled as I read all the things you mentioned. So true, so true…
We just put up our mailbox a few days ago too. What a beautiful view.
We put aside a bunch of stuff to get rid of too once we moved it. BUT now I find myself going back to that pile and bringing things back in the house!! : )
So happy for you guys. Praying that the unpacking goes smoothly!
Unpacking is a lot of work, but it is one step closer to being settled!! Glad you’ll have help!!
You sound busy settling in, but with help from family at the weekend I’m sure that the unpacking will soon be done. Glad you met your neighbour as you set up your mailbox. The landscape is beautiful.
Hooray for the mailbox. Good luck with the unpacking.
Yay! This is the beginning of a great new life!💕
I remember saying some of those same things when we made our big move almost 20 years ago now…especially, “Hello old friend” and “It is so good to have everything in one place again.” Happy unpacking! xx
Love this!
You are home! So glad for you. it will be a pleasure walking to and from the mailbox — stunning view!!!
Whew, sounds like a lot of hectic fun! Best of luck getting everything and yourselves settled in. 🙂
Would you believe that I actually enjoy unpacking and putting things away in a new place? I’ve done it often enough. Wish I were closer and could help you!
Yep, we still have a few boxes downstairs that have not been touched – their future may be doubtful!!!
