Made in Richmond

All of our clothes are still in suitcases, and I have no clue what went where in my kitchen cabinets, but we’re getting there.

Thanks to some incredible, wonderful, and very handsome and strong people, the POD was unpacked by 5:30 on Friday - a full hour before we had even asked people to show up. We spent yesterday unpacking and cleaning. Ross and his dad also got a couple things accomplished on our to-do list while Ross’s mom continued to unpack and my mom and I went to Target to stock up on shower curtains and the like for our THREE AND A HALF BATHROOMS. WTF.

Today Ross’s dad is coming back over to install a ceiling fan, but other than that, we’re taking a break today. There will be some unpacking, but mostly we’ll be trying to settle in. And napping. Oh! the napping.

Hopefully the dogs will get plenty of time to adjust today. It’s been pretty chaotic over here the last couple days with lots of people in and out and so much going on. It seems that Shooter and Zapp switched personalities upon walking in the door. He spends his days prancing around while she cowers from corner to corner, not knowing what to do next. Every strange sound makes her lose her sh*t (figuratively and literally), and if she’s left alone in a room, there is much woe expressed with brain-crushing howls. I’m considering valium. For everyone.

I’ll post pictures soon. Pictures of our new house. With four bedrooms. And three and a half bathrooms.
