Unpacking is coming along.  I don't mind the unpacking part so much – it's the putting away that bedevils me.  I don't have the same amount of storage space in the new house and I can't quite decorate like I did in the old house.  Not that I wanted to just replicate what we had before but I'm struggling with where to put things.  

I know it will all come together eventually but I kind of like things to be DONE.  Right now I feel like I'm just haphazardly slapping things into drawers and cupboards and I'll never find them when I need them.  

I'm kind of wishing we painted before moving in but I wasn't ready to decide on colors nor did I want to wait another minute to move in.  Our bedroom is this weird greyish/taupe color that turns lavendarish in late afternoon and evening.  The room is on the North East corner of the house and it really needs a warmer color on the walls.  Right now it is very gloomy to me.  That just might be the first room to get painted.  

I hope everyone is having a splendid weekend!
