It's been quiet...

... The move and everything that happened with it had us really, really busy. So busy that I haven't even had time to take proper pictures of what the apartment looks like now! There are still a lot of projects that need finishing. Our 'entrance area' (I can't really call it entrance area, it's too small for that, but hell, I'll just go with it) needs a LOT of finishing. Our 'pantry' (again - it's actually too small to call it that) needs organizing. The curtains in our bedroom need shortening and I need to make a lamp for it (it's totally a real and proper bedroom, though). Our dining area needs everything (I need to build a bench, re-paint chairs and table, hang more pictures, build a new lamp). Our kitchen needs curtains and a bit more decoration. Our living room is okay-ish, but The Doctor build a huge picture frame that he had some sort of crazy idea for, so now we have to get a picture printed for it and then hang it. I got a pouf though! I'm very happy about that. One picture that perfectly describes the chaos we've dealt with is that one here:

The first coffee on the first morning in the new apartment... in the middle of pure chaos.
 Of course, it doesn't look like that anymore. We've been living here for 4 months now - hard to believe! But even though we've cleared out the chaos, there's still loads of things to do. I'm almost glad that it's still too cold to use the veranda and the garden yet. I've planted a few bulbs, but the time for the rest of it has yet to come.


Yep, we still have to wait for spring to truly arrive here. Flipping through my phone, I've found a few pictures - they're not the best quality and most of it isn't finished yet, but here we go!


That was the first room we got done - to be exact, I didn't have anything to do with it. But The Doctor made sure his little music studio was done a day after we moved in.


Our new huge bed! We still have to buy mattresses that actually fit - ours are 10cm too small each, so there's a little gap between them. It's great to store a water bottle though, for whenever I wake up thirsty. Behind the curtains, there's our closet - I'll take better pictures of that once it's bright outside and we've found a solution to hang more things, we're running out of space currently.


Our beautiful stove - it's kept us warm through winter. We just ran out of wood today, so it will have to stay empty and cold until next winter. Let's just hope the sun comes out soon!

I'll be making one or two more posts later today, about two projects that we actually got done, or almost done, and hopefully bring back some life to this blog! :)
