We've just gone through a move, and boxes are still everywhere. We sold in May to take advantage of the hot market but our new place kept being delayed so we spent four months in a crappy AirBNB. We're in the (beautiful) new townhouse now and love it, but boy, you're right, we're plenty stressed. BTW, the new stove still hasn't been delivered and there's no old one, but I have a bbq, microwave, and hot plate to cook on. Better no stove than no fridge, I guess.
