For the past six weeks we've been dealing with a leaky floor heater and its related problems. Just last week we were told that fixing it would mean that we'd have to move out of our apartment temporarily. But they couldn't tell us when they'd be finished and we'd get to move back into our apartment. And that's not to mention the cigarette smoke smells coming through our ventilation system into our storage closet.
So as much as I hate to leave our gorgeous view and our short walk to town, we decided to move.
After an extensive online search, bicycle drive-bys, and actually viewing only one house, our rental offer was accepted earlier this afternoon. Whew. A bit of a relief.
But now we have to pack (well, mostly have our stuff packed) and actually move. And probably move into a temporary apartment/hotel. All the while Stepler is crazy-busy at work and Rory and I are headed to Georgia for three weeks.
We'll be working on getting settled in before 1) we go on our vacation the second week of August and 2) our dear friends arrive at the end of August!
We'll get a yard! and more space! and a quiet neighborhood. So there are definitely some positives. The house is currently occupied so I wasn't able to take pictures, but I will do so once we're settled in.
