Moving Sucks... I think I'll Procrastinate Instead

Good Evening Friends

I hope your having a fabulous & exciting weekend!

While I should be unpacking the shit that's been strewn all over my new abode, I find myself laying in bed... with absolutely no desire to ever unpack not feeling well.

&

Everyone knows how to cure a sickness...

with 

Sex and the City and Christmas Ale 

{of course}

{can you really resist a label like that? I didn't think so}

p.s. I STRONGLY recommend getting your New Moon tickets right now... due to many of the showings already selling out.

p.p.s. Don't worry, I already have mine, for the midnight showing of course ;) 

p.p.p.s Have a Wonderful Night, Darlings!

Guess what I got...

The keys to our apartment a week early! After some negotiating with my boss, I decided that I just couldn't wait any longer and I needed them on Monday. So I got them, because I agreed to paint & clean my own apartment (for a free month of rent!)

Was it worth it? Yes... and no. Its great to get to move in earlier, especially because we have such a busy week BUT the previous tenant was disgusting- I have pictures I would post but y'all would probably think I was crazy for agreeing to cleaning this place myself. Yeah, it's pretty bad. But I have faith that with some major TLC & maybe a few miracles, it will feel like home.

So last night we packed up some things: clothes, toothbrushes, shower stuff, bed stuff, my computer, wine, snacks, twilight/sex & the city dvd's etc., drove to Wally (Walmart) and picked up some essintials and headed over to our new place.

I swept the floors, made our "bed" (a ton of comforters and blankets on the floor) set up my computer so we could listen to some tunes and watch movies later on and popped a frozen pizza in the oven. We got to work painting what will be our bedroom after eating some pizza. 15 minutes later I decided that I hated painting walls.

After about 2 hours we were finally DONE with our room, called it quits, and celebrated with some snacks and a bottle of ice wine we got as a wedding gift :) I also convinced R that it would be much easier for him to paint if I wasn't in his way and I started cleaning instead... and because he loves me he agreed- but made me promise I would do the trim. So tonight, I tackle the bathroom with an army of bleach, windex, and about 100 magic erasers.

Its Official

We're Moving!!

And while I'm not excited to be paying rent and a cable bill, I am so freaking happy that I won't be living with my parents any longer! Don't get me wrong, Hanna and Pawel are great- they did birth me and all, but I would rather staple myself than live with them for another month. Not to mention, I get along with my parents much better when I'm not under their roof. (Hanna gives me attitude when I crack open A beer- its like I'm drinking bleach or something... "your too young to drink" ummmmm hello I'm 22, remember?)

I can't wait to decorate the new apt, which is a super cute, vintage style, 2 bedroom- complete with hardwood floors, faux fireplace, & did I mention it's basically on the lake? It's not only bigger than our past apt, it's also wayy cheaper (proabaly because the company I work for owns the building and because I'm the best office admin EVER, they cut me a sweet deal) I also love that every-single-tenant- living in this building has a dog, so Bear and Zeb will have plenty of furry friends running around.

Tentative move-in date is Nov 3rd, and the big move happens on the 5th. The best part of this whole thing might be that R has agreed to let me redo all our furniture DIY style!! I'm so excited that our furniture will finally match, plus with the lack of wedding stuff to keep me busy I've been very bored lately. (Anyone need invitations, flower, or centerpieces made? ANYTHING???)  Hopefully our next move will be to my future Floridian Palace-- keep your fingers crossed!
