She's a long one, such a long one

I just heard a train whistle go by in the night. I'm glad I can still hear them from my new apartment. I hate moving so much. derspatchel and schreibergasse and my parents helped heroically. Hestia is back to hissing at her brother to express her displeasure with the chaotic situation, but when it is not three in the morning I will hang pictures and unpack the kitchen and eventually put up my bookcases and my books. Right now there is the photograph of Lyndell's in the kitchen and a B. Kliban ex-pillowcase on the wall as the Banner of the Cat. We just finished hanging the shower curtain. I have to find a way to sleep. I am lousy mental shape right now, but at least I shouldn't have to move for another year.

What town/general area did you move to?

Mazel tov!

Thank you!

What town/general area did you move to?

Winter Hill, Somerville. I am actually quite close to my first Somerville apartment of 2013, although I like this location better: I am literally five to eight minutes' walk from the Somerville Public Library. At the moment the place is cavernous and full of boxes, but my first order of business is to unpack the kitchen and my brother and his truck will help move the books and bookshelves next week and if I can get some art up on the walls I think it will feel much more like a home. The cats are helping.

Sounds like you are very near where Other Kenjari and I lived when we first moved to Boston in 1999.
Good luck with the rest of moving.

Oh, cool.

Good luck with the rest of moving.

Thank you! My brother and his truck should be arriving to help with the books and bookcases on Wednesday.
