Update from moverville

Written by Maja on February 25th, 2010

Hello again! The last few days have been crazy. Crazy!

On Tuesday we moved in all our stuff into the new apartment. We were probably done at around 9pm and ended up eating Chinese take-away on the bedroom floor because we hadn’t had time to buy groceries. The apartment was freezing cold, so we slept fully dressed. We didn’t get to do any unpacking, but we did decide on where to put things, at least. State of mind: Bliss.

Yesterday we cleaned the old apartment top to bottom, which took all night. Still no time to unpack. State of mind: Bliss + loopy from all the detergents.

Today we’ve been at Ikea all day while spending a small fortune (Ok, teensy weensy fortune, this is Ikea after all!) on some new furniture and other necessities. So bottom line is – we still haven’t had time to unpack. And we won’t get to do it tomorrow, because tomorrow I work late. Oh, and did I mention our bed didn’t fit at all? It was too big to even fit up the stairs leading up to our apartment! So we gave away the bed, and are getting a new one tomorrow. We’ve been sleeping on the floor until now! Still happy :)

This is all we’ve had time to unpack so far: The sofa, the laptops, and Alfred the unkept bonzai tree. The bare necessities. So please be patient – I can’t wait to show you photos of the place, I just want it to be all set before I do ;)

I have to tell you, Marius and I have surprisingly similar tastes in decorating, and we’ve agreed on pretty much every placement, color and new piece of furniture so far. I can’t wait for Saturday, I’m going to stay inside and unpack and take it easy all weekend. Then I will bore you all with a post filled with new curtains, bedside tables and closet placements ;)

    Så deilig at dere slipper å krangle om hvert putetrekk! :D Fiiint! Men tenker dere gleder dere til å få en skikkelig seng, ja… Hørtes ikke godt ut slik som det har vært til nå! Lykke til med alt styret. Det kommer til å bli så fint, så!

    Så godt dere kan samarbeide på smaken da! For min del liker kjæresten min det brune 70-tall kombinert med hvite vegger, mens jeg er mer chabby-chicstilen :P men det går bra forløpig, jeg sniker meg til å male et møbel hvitt i ny og ne ;)
