Movement

Moving house is crazy.
You think you're prepared, and then ... well, we've all moved so we all know the feeling. During the crazy-ness that was the past couple of days Hunter and i have moved all his stuff from Bellingham, moved all my stuff from Squamish (we unexpectedly had to make two trips- not fun), Hunter returned his parents van, stopped by Ikea with his mum on his way back up, we showed Yolanda (Hunter's mum) the place really quickly before she headed back home, we slowly unpacked all our things, and we ventured into our neighborhood to purchase veggies for dinner.
It is hard to arrange all your things into a little space that you have to share with another person and all their things. What makes it even harder is this apartment doesn't have a single closet. I never realized how crucial closets are until now. Everything we own is on display in our home; a good and bad thing. It's making me re-evaluate the necessity of a lot of my belongings.
For now, here are a couple pictures Hunter snapped on our first night!







I'd love to upload some pictures of what our place looks like now that we are settled in -and i'm taking pictures during the day- but it literally took me over an hour to upload these four. If the internet is still snail pace tomorrow, we'll have to ask L. and E. about it, but hopefully it's just a glitch and it'll pick back up!
Here's our apartment.

How do you cope with stress/the stimulation of a new environment?
*Georgia, we've already taken a bath in your big soak-er tub with the bath salts you gave me for Christmas, it smelled amazing and my skin was silky soft afterward, so thank you!
