Warming Up the House

More people move in September than in any other month all year long. People pack all their stuff into boxes, load them into over-packed cars and vans, carry everything up small, cramped stairs, and try to turn a new, empty space into a home.

Some people move in on Monday, are hanging pictures on the walls by Wednesday, and make fresh mojitos and homemade mini quiches for the housewarming party on Friday. Other people take all their boxes upstairs, dig through them for the sheets and blankets, then get up the next morning to go to work and are still facing boxes when Friday night rolls around. For your friends who fall into the second category, why not throw a different kind of housewarming party? Grab a group of friends, order pizza, and help paint, unpack and warm up a new home. (And next week your friend can make you martinis with the time she would have spent unpacking.)
