Newness!

So I'm pretty much all moved. I've got a few assorted odds and ends that need to be moved over here. Planning on getting the rest of it tomorrow. Getting the majority of it all here went pretty smoothly. Moving a couple of blocks (essentially) away is fairly easy. Borrowed a truck to get the big stuff here and utilized Caitlin's legendary moving powers to get it all in.

First impressions of the new place, well, it's big. Like, really, really big! Easily twice the size and close to three times my old place. And it's fucking cold! Apparently, there's no more oil left in the tank. So that means I have to scramble to find someone to fill the tank, bleed the line and light the furnace before I can stay warm on the daily. First order of business was to get all of the windows sealed in plastic. That made a pretty big difference already. So now I'm rockin' the space heater so I can sleep comfortably, not too bad. Nailed up an old comforter to separate a couple of rooms. That seems to have helped as well. I've got a few other tricks up my sleeve, but need to really start unpacking and putting-away to get things in order. Stoked to have tomorrow off and start making my place look a little more homey.
