House Hangover

We're both having a bit of a "what have we done??" reaction. Dr Lady has been looking at other houses and rentals to reassure herself. I just keep running the numbers. I know it's going to be okay, that buying will be better than renting, but boy are we both having a bit of an adulting hangover.

I woke up this morning much too early but couldn't fall back asleep because immediately my mind went to furniture layouts, paint, types of laundry machines, internet companies, cat logistics, booking a POD-esque moving apparatus, garage gym flooring, gardens, lighting, second hand doors, etc etc etc

At first I was excited about all the possibilities, but now I'm just overwhelmed.

I had to spend all of Saturday reading and sleeping to recover and it was glorious, but now we must get back to life. 1.5 weekends left before move-out and I keep wondering what else we can do right now to help the move go smoother. My mom remarked on how everything has just fallen into place for us and I wanted to shake her and remind her of the weeks and months of prep that has gone into all this. Some luck was involved, yes, but mostly it was a whole lot of planning and research and timelines and anxiety.

Now I'm going to go make a list for what else needs doing before move out day in t minus 23 days.
