It’s been exactly one week since Pooh and I have moved into our new place. Unfortunately, Pooh and I haven’t been able to enjoy the new place much because we’ve been so busy with work and some things that we had to reschedule for this week since we couldn’t move in when we originally intended to. Hopefully, things will settle down this week and we’ll be able to relax a bit. It’s still great to spend the time that we have together though.

Anyway, Tigguhh says hi.

There’s more but I haven’t had time to put my watermark on em :)…I’ll try to post the rest of this set soon. :)

I’ve uploaded a couple pics from our big move. :) We’ve got so much to do and so little time! The top of my list is to get the walls painted, however, we’re very limited on time so it will unfortunately have to wait. Pooh and I are still playing with some designs and color schemes but I hope to have most of the painting done by the end of the month. Our livingroom is nice and clean, but our room, kitchen, and dining room are filled with boxes! Anyway…here’s some images from Day 1 of our Big move.

after a long tiring day of unloading and settling in …we had yummy pizza for dinner :)
and yummy dessert from Extraordinary Desserts….mmmmmm!
we invited our friend Jo to check out our lovely home :)
we went out afterwards for some drinks!

Pooh and I slept in our new home for the first time…it was great! It felt strange at first. Kind of like the unfamiliar feeling when sleeping in a nice hotel – cozy, but not quite like home. I guess it’ll take some getting used to and I’m sure it’s probably just the open boxes lying around everywhere that’s bothering me. The next day, Pooh made us a lovely breakfast.

We went to Temecula with some friends afterwards to visit a couple vineyards for some wine tasting fun! I’ll post about it soon!

Pooh and I have finally settled in our new place! We moved in sunday morning. We still have a lot of unpacking to do and there’s a lot of fixing up that needs to be done. We just got our wireless internet set up so I can post some pictures of our big move! I’ve got a lot to share :) We’re both so very happy! I can’t connect my camera-phone to my laptop because I can’t find the usb cord…but I’ll try to upload the pics as soon as I unpack everything :) I hope to post pics after work tomorrow. Gnite everyone!

It’s Pooh’s Birthday today! We’re going to Benihana’s! MMMM.

Update:
We just got back from Benihana’s :) It was delicious and our chef was very entertaining!

I’m so sad right now! We received a call from our landlord informing us that something happened with the previous tenant’s new condo so he’ll have to stay another week. All of his stuff is still in our new place and isn’t ready to move. UGH!!!! So unfortunately, we won’t be able to move in until next Sunday, the 20th, at the latest. Hopefully we can move in sooner but it just sucks because we got everything packed! I’m so sad. I feel like crying. I knew something was going to happen! Everything was going well. Everything was too perfect. There’s always something. Pooh just got his requested raise, I just got my promotion and raise the following day, (I was going to blog about it when we moved in) we got our new home in a perfect location, things were going great…and then this happened! ::sigh:: I’ve always felt that man should be in charge of his own destiny, but despite how he lives his life and how much good he might do…he still has no control over the anguish caused by the world around him. Sometimes I think that life is a hill that we’re all told to get to the top of…but whoever told us to get to the top neglected to inform us that they’ll be hurling giant boulders at us. Sometimes some of us get hit by bigger boulders. I guess I should of seen it coming because it all seemed too easy. ::sigh::
Pooh and I are gonna go out and have a couple drinks to calm ourselves down. :(

Well, on the bright side…I made an appointment for an eye exam & new glases on tuesday. I was going to cancel because of the big move. I guess I don’t have to cancel anymore…

Ok so I said I’ll be on hiatus…but I decided to blog tonight. I was reading one of my favorite blogs, Daniel, the Guy in the Dessert, and was deeply moved and inspired by one of his posts.

Daniel wrote,

It almost rained today. To actually feel any raindrops would have required my presence in the heavenlies. My wings were out for dry cleaning(they were rumpled during a little angelplay), so I was grounded and had to miss it.

Not a drop touched the earth, but even the promise of rain on the mountains makes me happy.

I was listening to Aqualung – Strange and Beautiful from the Wicker Park soundtrack (which I bought on itunes and absolutely love!) at the time. I’m still listening to the soundtrack as I write this post…Death Cab for Cutie – A Movie Script Ending is now playing. Anyway, with my rambling set aside, Daniel’s playful imagery is simply beautiful. I love his, somewhat, lugubrious tone and sarcastic innocence. His writing imbues humility and a genuine outpour of uninhibited thoughts and emotions. I often find myself more turned on by his eloquence than his streams of sexy “vintage” images. Of course, the eye candy is definitely an added bonus…but his writing alone captures my attention. Daniel’s blog is definitely a great blog!

Moving off on a tangent, Pooh and I found out we’ll be able to move in a day earlier. So we’ll be moving in on the 14th! We’ve still got a lot of packing to do but it’s mostly just sorting out all of our junk. Ugh, just a couple more days…I can’t wait! I’ll keep you guys posted. G’nite for now :)
