We moved - finally! We've been in the new loft for a full 24 hours now. Total box count: who knows. The move took five hours, and only two trips in the freight elevator at the new place (one of the benefits of living in a former warehouse). Another benefit is the concrete that separates our units from the others - not only does it provide great sound-proofing but it also keeps it nice and cool in here. The boys did not enjoy the move - in fact, when we arrived here they were downright mean! Bailey spent the afternoon hising in the guest room closet while Morgan found a way to get up on the ductwork (we have no idea how he got up there).
A friend at work pointed me to the 800 x 600 project. This site challenges you to create a collage made up of 64 pictures that are 100 pixels by 75 pixels (thereby creating a collage that is 800 x 600 - hence the name!). In a break from packing over the weekend, I created and submitted one from the Santorini pics. I need to play with it a bit more, but version 1 turned out pretty cool.
We're packing for the move - current box count: 26. We're not bringing everything though - some things are being sold, including this unique item (buyer paid $76!).
We're (supposedly) closing on the new condo next week and had our final walkthrough today. The new building is in one of those "regentrification" neighborhoods but we love it. Here's a picture of the lobby, our own hypostle hall :)
We were blown away at the progress - we had to really concentrate to find things to add to the punch list. We LOVE the kitchen.
BUT - we hadn't even seen the roof amenities! There's a 1/4 mile running track and plenty of room for sunning. AND a killer view of the city.
