We finally shifted!

After the seem-forever wait to shift,
We finally collected our keys on friday!
After a quick inspection of the home,
We did found some wear and tear
That were hidden by the furniture.
But i guess we could live with it 
And it was too late to complain, haha.

After, we went to the notary to sign our life away

And became proud owners!
Although the home is quite clean,
We still did a clean up 
Because of my ocd genes from my mum.
And unload the 2 huge bags of stuff we brought along.



It was hard to tear ourselves away from the new home

And returned to our old home
For final packing and dismantling the bed frame.

The next day,

Sis in law came early to go collect the truck
Apart from the family,
Im thankful for the 3 friends that came.
I cant imagine how we can shift alone with the family.
The friends brought more carton boxes along,
Everyone seems to be surprised that all had been done
And everyone just need bring the stuff down.





Despite being on 3rd level,
With narrow staircase and no lift
We managed to shift everything!
Except for the washing machine,
Which was to be transfer to a friend's home
To exchange for another model.
In the end, the boys give up,
The owner will have a washing machine
But we still collected the new machine.

Unloading was much simpler and faster
Since we stay on the ground floor.
Everyone was praising the new home!
I guess the size was small
and photos didnt do the new home justice,
So everyone was surprised how nice it is.
I think is more of they spent 1hr+ at old home
That the new home is a nice comparison, haha.

After unloading, we had lunch
And surprised my mother in law with a cake.
I abandoned her at the supermarket
To secretly buy a cake and flowers, haha.
It was her 60th birthday! 

After everyone left,
Husband went return truck with sis in law.
I managed to unpack some stuff
And we are still trying to survive without sofa
(we only have 1 chair now) and fridge.

Yesterday, we forced ourselves 
To returned to old home to clean up
Today, im going back again for last cleaning.
After, it will be forever bye bye to that
And focus on our new home!
