Done

I signed the lease on the new house tonite. It's mine as of the 15th.

Looking around I can't help being torn.

1. I cannot WAIT to get out of the freezing cold hell hole. And yes - in this instance Hell is FRIGID.

2. What have I done?? How in the world am I going to get this place packed up in 15 days? Oh, I know much has been left packed-but I got kitchen stuff to get moved - has to be the first thing. I'm making beef stew on moving day. I have clothes to finish sorting - that's one way to force the issue. Hell - I just got some of the damned Christmas stuff out. 15 days. Oh. My. Goodness.

But I'm excited. It's a home. AND I found an extra bonus tonight. I have a garage door opener. Yes - I don't even have to get out of my car to open the garage door.

I'm such a simple girl. Really - see how easy it is to make me happy? *grin*

I've already got a plan. That should surprise NO ONE that knows me. I've scheduled the switch over of utilities. I've already put the request in to forward my mail.

I'm renting a Uhaul or something. I have to. My wall unit is 6' x 6'. It would kill us to try and lift into a pickup truck. Plus - my furniture is big girl furniture. I want healthy happy people moving me. I can't feed them if they're in the ER.

I'm going this weekend to buy a fridge. I'll have to wait on the dryer until January. But I've gone this long. A bit longer isn't going to kill me.

So...it's all set. Settled. Done.

I'M OUTTA HERE.

Let us know what we can do...seriously! I know you need to rent something to move your "big-girl" furniture, but all the rest of the boxes (remember I have a personal relationship with all your boxes) can be moved by us bloggers with trucks.

Good deal.
That would be funny to watch TNT try to move some of your furnature. She's strong, but so tiny.. :)

Maybe we could get Harvey to live blog the move. That'd have to be a first wouldn't it?

Congrats on the new place.

YEAH! Congratulations! Now don't forget to let some of us know what that new address is going to be! Santa could get lost in the shuffle and that would NOT be good.

He's watching you know?! ;)
