My First Weekend In My New Home

Friday
Nothing...I did nothing.  After work I went & picked my car up from the mechanic.  As soon as I got home I planted myself on the couch with Netflix & a frozen meal.  After going out on a Thursday (WHY DO I DO THAT?!) all I wanted to do was sleep.  I decided that going to bed at 6 pm was ridiculous...and it was my last night sleep on my roommate's couch (woo!)...& that passing out in the living room at an insanely early hour was rude.  So Netflix & Chill all by myself happened instead.  Wild Friday...I know.  But my wild Thursday more than made up for it.  Thanks to whoever suggested Sing It On by the way.  I feel like it was Biana.  If I'm wrong I'm sorry & please correct me.

Saturday

Starting at about 8:30 in the morning until 4:30 in the afternoon my day was spent moving my stuff from storage to my new apartment.  When I finally finished that I had just enough time to take a shower & head over to Dallas to see Mr. & Mrs. Hipster for a dinner party.  One of their friends, who is also a teacher but is an amazing chef, cooked all of us dinner.  I don't even know what all we actually had but it was all so good!  On my way to dinner I called Mr. Stockyards to see what he was doing since he had had a rough day & was going to be busy on Sunday.  He showed up after we had all eaten but played games & drank with us.  I was so incredibly nervous because I really like him & Mr. & Mrs. Hipster are two of my best friends.  I really wanted everyone to get along.  Well seeing as he wasn't able to make it until after dinner, the other 6 people besides me at the house decided they wanted to put him to some sort of test.  So they found the above "Fantasy Match Bingo" card, sent it out in a group text (which included me) & then anytime he fit the bill for one of the squares they alerted everyone.  At one point I had to shut my phone off because I didn't want to read them until I was home & it kept going off.  When I finally got home that night & read them I was laughing so hard at their commentary.  He passed by the way.  He liked them & they all liked him.

Sunday

In the morning Mr. Stockyards went with me to return my rental truck (sad day) & then we got a quick breakfast before he dropped me off & headed home to do work.  I managed to make the entire day look productive without actually being productive.  When he dropped me off I called my mom, then I went to Target to get a few things, & then I went to Best Buy to get 3 different types of speakers (who am I??)  When I got back KState text me & asked if I wanted to go sit out on her patio with her for awhile.  I obviously needed a break from all of the unpacking I had already done so I headed over there.  Once home again I did manage to get all the hangers into my closet, the silverware into a drawer, & a few other random things either moved into the kitchen or put away.  I sat down with New Roommate & watched the end of the Packers/Bears game before heading to the grocery store for some frozen meals because unpacking & cooking real food clearly wasn't on my agenda for the day.  After I got home, instead of going right to unpacking like I should have, I sat down to type this out.  I'm just going to be optimistic & say that after I hit publish I at the very least got all my clothes in the closet...

  1. Unpacking is tough. The most important thing is that you got your clothes in the closet. That is always a big project so it's best to get it out of the way first. At least, that is how I think.

  7. Packing an unpacking certainly sucks, but I'm a weirdo and love organizing everything and creating new spots for my stuff. Glad you enjoyed a great Friday night in, your Netflix binge sounds heavenly!

  9. YAY moving and Mr. Stockyards (interesting choice of name)
    Unpacking always makes everything worse so it can get better.
