We Moved!

Moving took place on Saturday, and because of Macy's, it was hectic, but all worked out. The pee-scented sofa, thank you EMMA, was to be exchanged today, but they couldn't do it today so moved it to Saturday. And because they can't pick up at one location and drop off at another, I was pretty much screwed, as they scheduled me for the same time as the movers. BUT because a friend with a truck was kind enough to drive over before the movers, the bad sofa made it to the house on time. Macy's arrived not 15 minutes before the movers did.
The Front Living Room, boxes galore!
Overwhelming, no?

So now we are completely moved in (except for the xmas tree and a few other small boxes and trash cans) and have a new clean smelling sofa, that does not squeak in the arm. Yay. But things look chaotic here.
The Dressing/Sitting Room. Starting hanging things up but still so many homeless items...

I took yesterday and today off from work to unpack and settle in. Got several boxes unpacked yesterday, hung some things on the wall, and had the plumber over for 4 hours. (There was a clog in the line to the sewer. Washing machine spit back up the water, draining the tub caused leakage around the toilet, and then the toilet stopped working. Not a fun weekend. But all is fixed now! yay!)
Went with the Target Shower Curtain

Today my goal is to get my study situated. I was looking at the wall above my "Craft Cart" to see where I might hang my pegboard and happily, the previous owners had left some drywall anchors in that wall, *exactly* where I wanted them, so that went up easily! Unpacked more boxes (what is with all the books! How do I have so many?!) and am feeling less overwhelmed and more accomplished, tho not in the Jane-ite way!
The "Before" Shot of the Crafting Area & Closet

It's about lunch time (leftover Indian) so I can recharge.
I also joined Apartment Therapy's Spring Cure, hoping to Cure as I unpack. I'm already behind.

P.S.
The cats lounging on the back of the sofa last night.
Emma never rests like that but I guess she feels at home now. Isn't Darcy cute, reaching out to Emma?
