Moved in and settled.

It's been over a week in the new place!
We're all unpacked and the three book shelves I had the movers bring in are assembled and filled with books. The total cost of moving was $560, perfect! Couldn't have planned it better. The two guys were busy and did a great job. Nothing was damaged in the move and everything went perfectly. So, yes Winter Moving I can very easily endorse them.

So far it feels like home. The funny thing is that it's still all my stuff so everything feels familiar. This morning I had the internet guy come out to connect the phone line. Sonic.net will be giving me 20Mb/sec for $40.00 a month. I'm about 6000' away from a central office so my loop is really long. The installation guy said that I should expect pretty low performance.

Oh well, faster than the cable at my other apartment, shared line in a building with about 200 other people meant prime-time was impossible. I'm also a fan of a static IP so I can manage my own cloud server and firewall. Web page at the house should be up soon. I'm planning on a nice video web cam on my patio and maybe the front door.

Next comes going to ikea to get a dining room table and something for guests to sit on. My last place was too small to have anyone over so this is going to be fun!
