Moving Day! (Actually Half Day)

Finally! Moving day! I think it took me a few hours to locate everything I wanted to move aboard. Can't take much after all, it is a small space.

Have I shown you the outside yet? I don't  think so! She's a beaut. Meet the Pax Vobiscum (Latin for peace be with you)


Except for the bedding stuff I moved on last night and a number of useful stuff left over from the previous tenant (space heater, dehumidifier, assorted spices, rice, tiny fridge and electric kettle) the place was pretty empty.

And here's what I brought aboard: 


- One laundry basket of kitchen stuff: pots and pans, utensils, rice cooker, chopsticks! mason jars, a tin mug with a Chinese dragon on it, some spices and sauces, bowls and whatever else looked useful and could fit in the basket.
- a shiny new still-in-the-box tiny crockpot 
- cans of chicken broth, beans and tomatoes
- assorted fruits, veggies and produce staples like onions and garlic
- one laundry basket full of clothes, toiletries, and accessories
- a largish suitcase with more clothes, hangars and 4 big fluffy bath towels
- canvas tote bags 
- backpack full of watercolor plein air painting supplies
- book bag containing my laptop, assorted chargers, sketchbooks and other day to day art things
- some DVDs
- some books from a recent trip from Powells in Portland, and the nifty red bag
- 6 pairs of shoes, including my trademark red cowboy boots!
- trash bin
- bottle of rum Aaargg!
- 3 decorative odds and ends

Aaaaanndd that's it! 



And you know what it only took me an hour and a half to stow everything aboard! It's still positively roomy aboard. Most of the storage holds are still empty too. 

I think I'll bring a few more things aboard like some more blankets and bedding stuff, trivets and more hot pads, coasters; useful things. Also because I've got the room I'll bring my oil plein air kit and some other art stuff and books. I don't want to stuff this place to the gills, just a few more stuff.

Thanks for reading,
Marisa

  1. How fun! Are you actually sailing it? Are puppies on board? Are you working from the boat? So exciting!
