most exhausting weekend ever

timepieceI am moved. I have trucked everything I own up two flights of stairs. My calves ache, my back aches, my arms ache. There are boxes of stuff randomly distributed all over my apartment, and I no longer have any chairs in my living room, only a couch.
Thankfully for my sanity, we locked the cats in the bedroom for most of yesterday, with the unintended (but highly appreciated) result that nothing got dumped on the bed to be cleaned up before I could collapse. Must keep that in mind for the next move.
As for the differences between the apartments, you can judge for yourself whether these are pros or cons:
living room half the size
2 closets instead of 4
more windows - normal sized ones, and at a normal height
the bedroom gets very very bright in the mornings - direct sun on the bed at some points (the cats say that's a pro!)
tub instead of stall shower
no dishwasher
smaller kitchen
"balcony" - read: fire escape
And for this, I get to pay the same rent, plus the cost of electric heat. Oh, boy.
