This week on Totes Awesome Channel, we talking about moving!

I’m still living out of boxes but every day I unpack 3-5 boxes depending on what time I get home from work. I’ve been putting in longer hours so that only leaves me a couple of hours a night. In the vlog, I share a moving tip and some personal moving history. P.S. I filmed in my office/cave/closet. It’s moving day for me today at work!

It’s Bob in a box!

Speaking of Bob and moving, Bob did not adjust well to a new apartment. His crying and howling were constant whenever we were out of his sight. He also woke up in the middle of the night the first night crying. Poor baby. He’s becoming more and more adjusted with each day, thankfully.

Right after my first serious break-up, I was attempting to be self-sufficient. One of my endeavors in my quest for true self-sufficiency was to be my own handyman. It was a neurotic undertaking as I didn’t have anything to repair at the time. Regardless, I walked around a hardware store and decided to start my collection of handyman tools. I bought a box of nails, a hammer, and a can of WD-40. Through the years, my collection of tools have grown but in 7 years, I’ve not once used that can of WD-40. Do you know how happy I was to find that all the doors in our new apartment were squeaky? Apparently that stuff does not expire and it worked like magic! I can properly sneak around in the morning without waking up Alan now.

This weekend I hope to unpack all the boxes I have left, buy a washer and dryer, spend quality time with Ashley D over cheesecake, and go wedding dress shopping for and with one my best friends. What do you hope your weekend will look like?

I just don’t have much to share that I didn’t share in my status update. So here’s a photo of my books. Mostly unpacked and not yet organized.
