Settling In…

I admit it, I’m not one of those people who feel driven to unpack everything as soon as they’re moved in. Especially when there are other things that need to be done like installing new door knobs, locks, lighted doorbell buttons, putting together the stero, etc. Unpacking, for me, has always taken a backseat to stuff like that. My philosophy is that the unpacking of boxes will get done soon enough, so there’s no need to get anal about it.

So, things are slowly coming together nicely, and we are enjoying being in our own home. It’s so nice not to have to put up with the things that you have to put up with when you live in an apartment. The lack of noise from neighbors was strange at first, but it was something I got used to quickly. Plus, the fact that we no longer have to speak to Morgan about not running, jumping, and 5 million other things a 7 (soon to be 8!) year old boy does is wonderful as well. (Though there are times when he still becomes too loud for even us to bear!) Also the fact that we no longer have to get permission to have anything (like our Directv service) installed is pure heaven. All these little things add up to a lot of good feelings that can only come when you own your own place. *happy sigh*
