All Settled

Today we installed wireless internet!  I am so glad to have access to the internet at home.

Now for an update on the new living situation...

I absolutely love living with my boyfriend.  We had to cut back on a lot of  unnecessary belongings, and I have since taken two large loads of items to Goodwill.  Did you know that Goodwill accepts appliances like toasters and scales?  I was glad that I did not have to trash something that was still functional.

Also, since my last post I cleaned out my old apartment and was officially out by September 29th.  Thanks to a whole weekend of cleaning, two Monday's ago I received my FULL security deposit back!  To celebrate I took all the people who helped in the moving process out for a drink, it was a good "ending to an era".

Before locking the door that last day, I took some pictures...

All the flowers that my Boyfriend has bought
 me since we started dating 2 years ago, unfortunately the flowers
had to be thrown away.  At least I have this picture as a memento!
The last of the items to be moved out
I cleaned the kitchen so well, these
appliances look brand new!

Empty (&clean) Bathroom
Bare laundry area
Bedroom, I can't believe how much furniture
 I had stuffed into this small space!

Moving Success

The move to my boyfriend's apartment was a success. 
Thanks to the help from friends, and a little heavy lifting, all of my many "things" were either stored in the garage or moved to the 3rd floor apartment.
The good news is I didn't have to workout at all that week, lol.
The cleaning of my old apartment was also completed before the move-out date.  I think we did an exquisite job, and expect a full refund on my security deposit (yea, right.)  One can only hope :)  Regardless if I get my full refund back or only a portion of it, I feel good that I didn't leave the apartment messy or in poor condition.   


The conclusion of a life chapter has passed, and the beginning of this next chapter is well underway. 


Pictures to come, stay tuned!


Have a great week everyone.
