The Hill of the Capitol
I’m pleased to report that we are settling in to our new place. We still have a few bins and boxes to empty and figure out what to do with all the contents, but parts of the condo are starting to feel like an actual home. We are definitely having to downsize a bit, getting rid of old desks and random items we have been hoarding over the past two and a half years, which has resulted in a freak-out or two on both my and Ariel’s behalf, but we are getting through it relatively unscathed. Having so many friends help us move was a definite blessing and the move itself went super quick. And the walking! To the grocery store, to dinner, to coffee in the morning. It’s awesome. I also cut about half an hour off my commute to work each day, which means I suddenly have more non-work time to enjoy. Supposedly we are closing on the sale of our house either Friday or Monday, which can’t come to soon as far as I’m concerned. I’ve already moved on in my head and though we still have stuff to clean out of the house (ugh), the sooner I can be done with Rainier Beach, the better.
