So! We hired moving companies (down there to load, up here to unload) for this trip - to lift and pack the truck of our furniture and heaviest items/boxes.

Totally. Worth it.

I now have a desk, I've halfway got the living room set up with the furniture, need to set up the table but I need to find a wrench to bolt on the legs to that sucker (heavy ass solid wood table and legs). We got the bedframe set up though, which is really nice, we'll not be sleeping on the mattress at floor level anymore! :D

So yeah, I'm happy right now and feeling really accomplished! Now I just need to save up and get a second cat tree for the living room, since Miss Flufflebottoms has decided she loves having the tree in the bedroom. Miiight switch the corner it's in, though, so she can no longer make a flying leap from the top of it right for my head. o_x
