Nesting

Yesterday (Friday) was all about nesting. We knew we had to wait for the Time Warner guy (8am - 10am), the IKEA delivery (8am - Noon) and UPS, so we planned to do some chilling in the apartment that morning. Much to our delight both Time Warner and IKEA arrived a little after 8am and by 9:30am we had cable & internet and I was building our furniture.











SMS wonders what we have done while I get to work on the chaise (or fainting couch, as I like to call it!).




We spent the rest of the day waiting for UPS and building IKEA furniture. It was much easier than I thought, but then again, we only did the easy pieces! UPS came around 5pm and then we went out to Bed, Bath and Beyond in Encino which was TOTALLY empty. Apparently there are cooler things to do on a Friday night in The Valley than shop at BB&B, but I had a blast.

In other news, SMS started his own blog yesterday, so make sure to check it out. He and I have very different feelings about this move. While we're totally in it together, we are experiencing it very differently!

Today we have a lot going on. A friend from my old job (did I mention I'm unemployed?) is in town to visit her family and she's coming over to foreman our IKEA construction. She just bought and put together the same shelves we bought, so she knows what she's doing. Then another friend from my old job is in town for work and she's staying with her sister who lives up the street from us! She's going to stop by on her way home from the beach. Then we have plans to see one of our new LA friends.

I hope today's IKEA stuff is as easy as yesterday's but I sort of have a feeling that won't be the case...
