We're moving!

Ok so if you got excited thinking I meant moving to the "mainland" I'm sorry, we're not. We're actually just moving across the street. But it's a TWO BEDROOM! I'm sooooo excited. Our one bedroom is falling apart. The company renting it to us doesn't care either. I sent them an email two years ago telling them about things and they said "Please call and explain your email, we're not sure what if anything you want us to do." I think if you email your landlord, after being told to email when you call, and tell them that you have tiles loose and the kitchen cabinets are falling apart it means you want it fixed. Finding a rental here is alot more work than other places and the prices keep rising. We have a 550 sq. ft. one bedroom for $855 and that's about 200 minimum less than other apartments. Luckily the apartments across the street are only $100 more and the manager is a member of our church so instead of advertising she lets the ward know when there is an opening. Thank goodness we were in a position to be able to move this time. There are so many young families from our ward that live there it's refered to as Zion. I'm happy to get the toys out of the living room, to be able to use the cupboards in the kitchen, and there's storage in the bathroom! It's a big two bedroom too. I've been spending most of my time packing, and sorting. I love to get rid of stuff. It's amazing how much junk accumulates even though I throw stuff out all the time. I took all the extra junk I found to a swap meet with my friend and I sold it to make extra money to decorate with. I was super excited. I usually just give it to goodwill but I figured since most of it was still nice I would see what happened. I made alot so I was really happy. Isabelle was a ton of help. Shoppers loved playing with her. She spent alot of time in her seat under the table in the shade.



We move on the first. Our cable won't get connected until the 16th though. So I won't have the internet for two weeks! I could live with that except I pay all our bills online. All of the pains of moving are worth it to live in a bigger apartment, and around women I can get to know, and friends of Alekisio's from nursery. The little boy he gets put in timeout with all the time lives over there. He's really excited to live by Kobe. Neighbors beware!
