So things have been super crazy with me for the last few days. I just got a new job and I am still in the process of moving. Here is what had been happening over the last few days. I got the job on a Friday and had to report for training and workshops on Monday of the following week.

This meant that I had to drive three and a half hours out of town so that I could be there on time. Well I really was not up for getting up early and starting to drive at five in the morning every day and then driving back up so I had a friend go with me to look for a place.

We looked and looked for hours but could not find anything that *ahem* fit my standards. I finally found a place that I liked but they told me they could not have a place ready for me until September 28th. Now this is one month and two weeks away and I have to be at orientation the next week.

I went ahead and placed a hold on the apartment and went off to look for a storage place. Yeah…there is a U-Haul storage right across the street from the place where I will be staying. Ok, things are starting to look a little better now. I gather all my friends and we have a packing party and get everything ready to move down.

I got a friend who lived in the area to stay with for a couple of weeks so that helped out my situation a bit. My other choice would have been to stay in a hotel for the entire time and you KNOW how costly that would be.

Two weeks go by and I am starting to feel the burn from living out of a suitcase in a small space. I am on my way to a training session when I get a phone call from the complex. They said the people who were in the apartment where I was waiting decided to move out early because they got another place early. This means that my apartment is now ready.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Wow. What a relief as I can now move into my new space and not be cramped up any more. The bad thing is that I have already paid for storage for the month and my friends were not planning on coming back down to help until the end of the month.

So I have moved into the new place………….and I am still living out of the suitcase basically.

I had a few roundabout dealings with the electricity company and the cable company….and who knows where my mail is going to right now. I had my mail forwarded to Honey’s address since I was supposed to be in between places for a month. I have received two pieces of mail at my new address so I am assuming the rest of my mail is still going to him. I just an address change done but I think the post office is confused now with the dates changing.

Wow….that was quite an adventure.
