It's All Happening at Once

Took a surprise trip to Fort Worth... After researching apartments online, we decided at about 5pm Thursday evening that we'd drive up and check them out. So, we threw a few things in a bag and off we went, stayed in Waco over night, and cruised in after breakfast Friday morning.

We were kind of like Goldy Locks; The first batch of places were too dumpy (although we considered it for a while on account of the possible savings). The second batch was too ritzy (hmmm... tempting...). But at about 2:30 in the afternoon we found the place that was JUST RIGHT. It's a two bedroom apartment in a gated complex in an established neighborhood with lots of trees and -- best of all -- it backs onto a riverside jogging track. I think we'll like it.

Also, today we got notice that some people want to rent our house in San Antonio. We've been scrambling to write up a contract for them to sign on Monday. They want to move in as soon as possible, so that means a lot more scrambling is about to occur on our end. It looks like we'll have two weeks to get the heck outta here! We'll put our furniture in storage for a month and find some living arangement for ourselves while we tie things up here. Life is about to get crazy.

PS Joe had to change a tire in the rain today. He gave me the job of holding the umbrella.

  1. What an adventure (or a few, should I say). I"m glad things are working out for you. I can't wait to hear about next week's ultrasound. Don't keep me in suspense too long, OK?
    PS: Good thing you had an umbrella. What would he have given you to do if you didn't have one there?
    PPS: Get a new camera (excuses, excuses) and post some belly pictures!
