2 anecdotes about obvious things we failed to think of

waxjism wrote in the post Our house, in which we are still not living, that "We're killing it on Finnish Craigslist". (Also about said obvious things we forgot.)

(We are having good experiences in general on the Finnish equivalent of Craigslist too, as well as forgetting obvious facts. And as a side benefit, whenever the Finnish Craigslist equivalent comes up I get Weird Al's Craigslist playing in my head.)

The things we failed to think of were the previously mentioned fact that the drawers of a dresser can be removed for transport and also that putting the shower upstairs with the bedrooms, and the washing machine downstairs with the public spaces, would make more sense than the other way around. She totally made it into anecdata, though.

We were there today and only ripped off a little bit of wallpaper - they had taken down 3/5 downstairs radiators that we're gonna need to paper and paint behind, but for the most part, our continued progress towards being able to live in the rooms in question is simply dependent on the contractors in charge of plumbing and building.
