Update from today (Apr 30 2026 [22:22]) and what have happened in the last few weeks
In one word:
Relocation
So, maybe like any other human being, I live between different pursuits/hustles (🤔), hobbies, go to all sorts of places and all sorts of other things in between. In the end, probably around March 15th, I realized that I had a destination and a direction. At that point I was ‘ripe’ for it, and in the end, I started looking for movers and setting a moving day, tidying up, cleaning and preparing the apartment for the movers, and then again after that, in preparation for its final evacuation (including myself), before I left.
This is what transpired afterwards:
March 15
Just another boring day…
Anecdote:
Always love to joke around, being silly, having a light personality, with a good vibe and experimenting with different things 🤣🤣🤣!
Goaty like!
Nothing is worth mentioning from today besides the “Goaty like!”
April 3
Started to organized my stuff and place some of it inside boxes:
Later, did a walking route (an exercise) and off course I am always have something to do regarding, art, nature and in this case, like a weekly (and even daily) basis, photography – See some of it:
April 5
A beautiful branching twig:
I found it couple of months ago (probably on….?) during a walk (and exercise) and saved it for a later for a project similar (or identical) to what I did many years ago.
April 6
The movers came to pack my stuff:

Just went to get a haircut:

April 11
What is left for me to eat before the flight:
| I woke up at around 3 hours before my taxi ride to the airport, and this is what was left for me to fill my tummy until the ride (basically, just what I needed): | |

I am ready (soon, the taxi):
Later at the terminal:
April 11(con.) – 16
Took for a few days a motel (hotel) room:
I am not forgetting to keep up with some routine
Watching TV
So, during 11-16th of April, I kept with a routine of walks (at the street) and fitness (as shown on the above video). I also, had a habit to go outside of the motel’s room, down to its lobby/lounge area, with my laptop to do stuff.
April 12
continue with a basic routine of: gym, walking outside and with my laptop at the lounge:

So I did 10min fast walk and:
And, another set of Swings, Push-Ups & Bicep-Curls.

April 17
Went into my new apartment:
My new (unwrapped) mattress:
April 18
At noon (around 13:00) came the groceries and I was finally able to eat something decent as well as decent coffee. about 2-3 hours later came the bed frame (with a foldable chair). The foldable chair box (with additional 3rd box) were light and easy to carry. However, to carry (more accurately, drag along the way) the heavy box of the bed was not easy but manageable (see 1st video ahead) – It was probably a distance of 600 feet, or so. Luckily, near the end, at what being called “the final stretch”, a nice neighbor saw me and assisted an help (along the long corridor as seen at the end of the video) – Much obliged!
Sometime later, I assembled the bed frame (see 2nd video ahead) and created a contraption with the carton box of the bed + the nylon wrapping of the mattress (see: Simple Laundry Stand).

April 19
Went to a running “event”:
| * | I am just running out in the open – An update at the beginning of the run (see video) and 2 more images later: (1) Panoramic (up-n-down) selfie after about 2K and (2) Panoramic (wide) photo with the view. |
| * | Panoramic (wide) photo with the view at about 7K. |
And off course I am aware (❤️) to my surroundings:
* Life is precious!
April 20
Watching TV on my bed in a temporary solution:
April 21
| Also, keeping up with a some routine at the gym: | |
|
|
Biceps Curls
(25lbs, 10reps, x2 sets)
Spinning
(1.47mi, 7:01min)
April 23
The story continues – I reached out to the carrier company (i.e. “movers”) to receive an update regarding my stuff.
I went to the gym around 15:30-16:00 and at the end I came outside and had a sunbath (or as I calling it “Photosynthesis” [also, breathing a good air out in the open]), afterwards, at home, I carried the unit/shelves that was already arrived earlier, from the entrance to my apartment (again around 600 feet). Afterwards, I had a decent meal, rest a little and went back to the entrance to pickup my 2nd package for today that arrived around the same time, again 600 feet to my apartment.
Off course, I have assembled both of them and now it is time to take a shower, eat supper because it is almost 7PM, rest, TV and whatnot.
April 24
I just arranged the apples from the store and took an artistic photo & creating another simple ‘contraption’
April 26
I was out all day (08:00-17:00) and around 18:00-21:00 the carrier brought all my equipment.
Truck have arrived
Unloading started
Selfie with everything
April 27-28
I wanted to assemble the computer desk but I needed the screws to do it. As shown on the picture ahead (see: “Searching the screws”) I found 5 out of the 6 mini plastic boxes that I’ve stored small miscellaneous stuff for not being lost during the move. However. the screws for the desk were not in them. As a result It was clear that the screws would be found on the last 6th box. Thereby, I spent perhaps 30-60 minutes of browsing between the big pandemonium of boxes and stuff, to finally find the last small box.

One last thing to do
(Apr 28 [19:37])
Finito!
(Apr 28 [20:57])
I worked very hard today (Apr 28) – I finished unpacking most of the large boxes (let’s say about 4 left). I emptied the huge box with all its contents – Apart from shoes, kettle, hangers (extra), in this huge huge box, were also my long pants (elegant ones) which, since they were together with what I mentioned, I had to wash them and then hang them in the walking closet.
| * | It should be noted that the photo(s) are selfies between the dining area and the living room, and there was much more equipment and boxes scattered beyond the boundaries of the photo (throughout the apartment), with almost everything concentrated in one place – Mostly in the entire dining area and the entire living room. |
April 29
Finished unboxing all of the boxes
April 30
| To do list: | |
|
|
The foldable computer table is supposed to arrive tomorrow, so I can say that most of my stuff as well as new things that I need to buy, are organized (at least the critical majority). Of course, I have all sorts of small cardboard boxes, documents, and more that I need to sort and organize, but in terms of the flow in the apartment, it doesn’t related, and the job is done!.
Lastly,
my chosen ‘theme’ (‘featured’) image:
Transitioning and climatizing into the new place
(April 18 [11:34.08])
What remains are all the usual things: work (a ‘position’), classes (or, clubs), community, people, and everything else in the new place. Off course, continue with my website and different projects. But, perhaps, I might take a week or two to climatize!
