Moving Day

Friday was Moving Day #1 for David. After work, we filled my van with the first load (all the TV equipment), then he took me over to see his new apartment. We measured and discussed furniture before we hit Ikea. I'm sure Ikea's stock went up that day since David bought almost all of the furniture he needs in one big spree: sofa, dining table, four dining chairs, bed frame, bed slats, and mattress. Amazingly, it all fit in the van, and David's wallet was considerably lighter.

The Professor and Jared met us at the apartment for unloading and a grand furniture-putting-together party. We finished up just before 2:00 am, furniture all nicely arranged. 
The Professor has become a pro at snapping all the slats into the bedframe,
while Jared proved himself a pro with the wrench

Jared helped David conquer the dining chairs
On Saturday, David moved all his clothes, as well as his desk and all the computer equipment. I'm sure that took hours to set up. His old room isn't quite clean yet: assorted linens and clothes and unidentifiable objects still sit on the floor.

A coffee table, two more dining chairs, and a night stand will round out the new apartment decor well. And Mom thinks a large piece of art on the wall would be a nice touch too.
