Moving....
I just noticed that in my last post I said it was raining. Funny, it's raining again now.
We are reaching the end of our stay in Virginia. We're leaving on October 30th! I'm finished with work...it's a long story about why I didn't stay through my last week and a half, a long story I'd rather not get into (I've told it numerous times now). But it's for the best that I'm no longer working there. So here I am organizing for our move. I've made a spreadsheet with google docs to document every box's contents. It's going to be a great feeling when I've accomplished this task. So far I've only created the spreadsheet. I have to begin the actual packing. I'm going to buy the plastic totes this time, instead of packing them in the disposable packing boxes. It will make for better organization and will be easy to store them this way. I won't have to worry about my things being damaged, or at least I won't have to worry as much ;). We are moving with only boxed items, no furniture this time. I've listed everything on Craigslist for sale and hope to be sitting in a fairly empty apartment by the end of next week, if not sooner. Right now we're planning to rent a furnished apartment, but it depends on what's available. Eventually we want to buy a house. Once this happens we'd like to purchase the furniture we want then. I'd like to be married before we own anything, so it's possible we'll be renting for a while. Renting sucks but at least our rent will likely be half of what it is now. Justin flew to Texas last week for an interview. He's hoping to hear some good news this week, as am I. This position sounds like a good thing for him.
Yesterday I had an eye exam and picked out some new glasses. My eyes are getting worse with the aging...I need these glasses NOW. I think they are pretty cute too, and hopefully everyone else will think so. After I pick them up this afternoon, maybe I will post a photo of them! I'm going to target today to buy my totes. After that I need to be home for my potential buyers. I've got three different people coming to look at the furniture I'm selling later today.
This weekend we are planning to drive over to Delaware again to visit with Justin's family and friends. Last weekend we went over for a night and day. We celebrated Justin's youngest cousin, Nathan's 5th birthday with him and his family. It was fun and I'm glad we went-it will probably be a while before we're back on the East coast after we move. This weekend we will be celebrating another birthday, it's Justin's mom's birthday. AND the following weekend is his brother, Blake's birthday. Lots of October birthdays. Krista's baby, Christopher is doing OK. He's had surgery once already and has had some troubles due to adjusting to the surgery, but as far as everyone knows, he's doing good. This will be a difficult time for them, just taking things day by day, but hopefully with each day that passes, he'll progress in the most healthy way! Krista and Eric finally got to hold him - which must have been amazing for them.
I just got a call ...someone's coming to look at the bed we're selling in 30 minutes. I need to go get ready!
