Moving - Its never how you hope it will be.

So we got all of our large, furniture type things and most of our other type things moved into the house over the weekend. Our hide-a-bed couch never gets lighter and Pancho declared that it was the last time he will be moving it, ever. The past few days have been uncomfortably busy what with the moving, the unpacking, the instability and a birthday celebration crammed in. I conspired against Pancho and got most of his friends to meet us at a local tavern for a surprise birthday get-together Saturday night after we finished moving. I was pleased at how well it all played out and that he seemed to have such a good time hangin out with his homies.
Adding to the uncomfortability of these last few days is the fact that Pancho and I have yet to have a good nights sleep since we moved. Its always hard to sleep well in a strange new place, but our kitties seem to be taking it to the next level. When they finally get the courage to come out of hiding, they just wander around the house, crying all night. Whats worse is that they seem to be absolutely inconsolable. Not even the luxury of being able to sleep in the bed with us - something they normally are not allowed to do - quiets them down.
I hope they relax soon; sleep is something Pancho and I consider to be very precious and an absolute requirement.
