Movin' Day!

I helped Cat move yesterday. It's amazing how much one person can accumulate in one bedroom in one year! She moved from a second floor apartment to the second floor of a townhouse. Lizzie had helped her move the big stuff on Friday, so we were just getting boxes and bits and ends. Two car loads full.

Her new bedroom is considerably smaller than the previous one. 8' x 9'. My sisters have walk-in closets larger than her room! We got her a loft bed last year when she moved, because that room was smaller than hers was at home. Thank goodness for IKEA! This time, we got her a wardrobe, so she'll have some storage space. The closet (such as it is) attached to the room is also really tiny.

Too bad we didn't video ourselves putting it together - I'm sure THAT would have made an excellent addition to youtube, since we both speak blonde quite fluently (being natives, and all): "Could you give me two of those little black plastic thingies?" "Okay, now I need six of the little wooden peggie thingies..."

It was fun hanging out with her, but it was a long, long, long day. We started about 11am, and I threw in the towel, er, I mean, handed off my tools, when Zack showed up at around 20 minutes past Midnight.

I think all that was left to do was finish tacking down the backing, install the doors (hinges and knobs, oh my!), and put in all the inside shelving and stuff. Oh yeah, and carry all the boxes we left in the living room upstairs and put everything in them away.

This dance had quite a story, which started with these two young ladies doing laundry.
