...but there's still a heck of a lot of them unopened, let alone unpacked. We have accomplished a lot since we got back from FGC Gathering, though. (More on the Gathering later, with pictures!)
As of last night, we have air conditioners installed and working both upstairs (in the master bedroom) and downstairs (in the living room). We found Ivan's hairbrush a couple of days ago and have been giving him much-needed combings (three and a half full combs the first night!) We know when recycling and garbage pickup are and how to separate items. And a lovely woman from a nearby "court" in the co-op came over last night with a bagful of welcoming goodies (coupons, info on the co-op that wasn't in our blue official homeowner bider) and, on her own, a plant. Turns out she's a Quaker too! As well as a cat person--she was duly admiring of our Ivan.
Heard a major crash this morning--fortunately, all Ivan had knocked over was our metal clothes-drying rack (and it was even empty, so no clean undies on the floor!)
We love the neighborhood--fairly quiet (very quiet except when a bus goes by), highly walkable, lots of nearby shopping ranging from the grocery co-op to Starbuck's to an awesome tiny pastry shop (yummy Napoleons!) And certainly more amenable to our social and political interests, judging from the bumper stickers and area events.
More later as we have more time. I should take some pics of our still-box-laden living room...
