This has been a good day so far. My wife and I hooked up the flatbed trailer to the truck yesterday and drove to the new property today. We then hauled the new washer/dryer, two new futons (still in their boxes), an 8' x 11' rolled-up carpet, and a small ladder, from the barn to the new house. We hooked up the washer and dryer (the dryer's power cord was detached). Both machines have yet to be tested since the washer actually requires some laundry in order to calculate how much water to load. We put handles on the refrigerator/freezer, and removed all of the plastic wrap that lined its shelves. We rolled out the carpet and laid hardware upon it to keep it down. In a few days it will probably have most of its curl gone. And the futons ... Okay we didn't do anything with the futons. They're just sitting there in their boxes, a job to do tomorrow or Friday.

But it's nice to have finally done something practical on our own to the place - and to have freed up a little room in the barn to boot. It also marks the end of the new house being just an empty house, essentially a money pit. From now on we'll be transferring things from either the barn or our current house regularly. It's begun to feel like a home.
