Survived!!

What a crazy past ten days it has been for Steve and me. We have survived a move, the first week of classes, and Steve being sick for three days.

We are all moved out of our apartment and are now comfortably living in Ed's trailer. We're going to call it home now instead of referring it to as Ed's trailer because, well, it's home now. The move was horrendous. Thank God for our friend Jesse Yates who helped us. He's such a great friend.

Fortunately we did not have many casualties. Nothing was broken, at least not that I am aware of (Steve has a history of breaking things during moves), and only minor injuries were sustained. As I was carrying our microwave down the stairs of our apartment I fell down the stairs and banged up my knees pretty badly. And then later, while we were unloading at the trailer, I ran into this shelf thingy in the Uhaul and hit the side of my head. Then, after I got down from the Uhaul, I turned around to tell Jesse and Steve, and WHAM, a chair fell from the Uhaul and hit me on the otherside of the head. After a few involuntary tears, I was all better. Steve hurt himself with the mattress; Jesse did not get hurt.

Needless to say, we are all healthy and healed and our trailer is all pretty now. I took all day Sunday and unpacked, organized, and prettied up the place. It feels like home.

Classes started on Tuesday for both Steve and me. Steve is enjoying his classes and is excited about a couple of them. I'm liking most of my classes so far, although I'm a little concerned about my Ecology class. We'll have to see how that turns out.
