Now the real work begins

So the movers have left.  They were here for three hours though I think it could have been less if they had fewer cigarette breaks.  Anyway, I helped out, I think it might be a control issue.  I took care of all the clothes, coats, shoes, CDs and bathroom items.  That left books, DVDs and the kitchen for the movers.  Overall it went pretty smooth.  One of them spoke no English and the other very, very limited English.  The one who spoke no English kept whistling the Pink song "So What," so he was a winner by me.  Anyway, they will deliver our stuff to Freiburg tomorrow evening and Carsten will deal with it on that end.   Now the real work begins here in Munich.  I plan to spend much of Friday cleaning the apartment, scrubbing everything down.  I think we will paint on Saturday, depending on what time Carsten arrives.  And then Sunday we will drive to our new home, where I can unpack and arrange the new place.  Thankfully I enjoy doing that and Carsten doesn't; it works out quite well.  Oh and if you are wondering what I am sleeping on since the movers have left, it is a sleeping bag on the hardwood floor.  Basically I am camping indoors.
