Okay... 10 days and we have the keys to our house. Wow, so in ten days I will say goodbye to apartment living for good. I remember when I was 18 and all I wanted was to live in an apartment, and now, seven years later, I just want out. My problem today is that I am out of boxes, this is only a temporary problem, my hubby will have a car load of boxes for me when he gets home from work. Until then I feel like I am stuck. I can clean, but as I clean things I know I should be putting them in a box. I know that the rest of this week will be better, I will have plenty of boxes {I hope} and I can get everything that we don't need in the next ten days into boxes. Then I just need to be creative about where I stack my boxes. They can't be too low because Max will climb up them like a mad man, but I don't want them too high where they could tip over onto Max....hmmm, we'll see what I come up with. The more I think of our new place the more happy I am with our decision. I know it is not as much space as I wanted, but as I stubbed my toe on the wagon in our bedroom last night {yes, Max's wagon is in our room...what do you expect, I have NO room here} I realized I will be able to put Max's wagon in the garage, along with his jogging stroller, and his Power Wheels truck{which is by the kitchen table}. Then, I realized I will have third bedroom, which will have the bed that has been in storage for a year, and will have a spot for a desk {we now have our computer in the living room.} I want the "living area" of our new home to feel like a model home, no more random things around, and I really think in this home I will be able to find a spot for everything. And if it doesn't have a "true" spot, I will have the storage area under the stairs to put my random things {you know, stuff you don't need right now, but you can't get rid of} Dinner is made and Max and I had fun making rice krispie treats, so I don't have anything at the top of my list for today....so I guess I should do some deep cleaning, fun huh? I also have to get a hold of the dummies at our Apartment building, I went down to their office three days ago, sat down with the leasing lady to find out what EXACTLY I owed for pro rated rent this month. she told me, I wrote a check. Well, today I got a note on my door saying I was short on rent. Well, if I pay the extra amount they want me to I would be paying a full months rent. So obviously some not so clever person didn't look very close at my file... I am not here the whole month so I am not paying for the whole month. Ugg, they are not so bright here at Silver Reef, which makes me even happier to be moving. I think I have gotten over all my "fears" of the move and am ready to go, I am just ready 10 days early.
