Guest Blog: Moving Soon!

So like I told you HERE and then HERE…once again our move date has been moved. It is now August 15th. The good news is that the inspection has passed, they started dry-walling yesterday, and they’re giving us half of the month of August free because of all the hassle. I feel like all I’ve done is complain and talk about this apartment lately, so instead….you can hear it from my roommate Eric. Eric take it away:

So we finally have a set move date! At first we were supposed to move June 1st (and lost that apartment to another couple), then this apartment (which is being built) was supposed to be finished and ready by July 1st. Well, our leasing agent contacted us and told us that we couldn’t move in until August 1st – which was extremely frustrating because we had already started the packing process! When we went in mid-July to see the apartment, all the plumbing and electrical wires were installed, but they had to wait for their final inspection before they could close up the walls, and that hadn’t happened yet. SIGH. So, he called us the other day and let us know that they passed their final inspection (yay!) and they have started the drywalling. SO, our new move date is August 15th, absolutely, for-sure. Huzzah!! The apartment is so beautiful (we saw other, completed units when we signed onto it) and is going to allow me to emulate my dream bedroom! We have exposed brick, European-style cabinets, a dishwasher, laundry in-unit, 2 bathrooms, 2 bedroom, and an office. I can finally have my own office!

Anyway, here’s the colors we picked (will be with exposed-brick accent walls):

(Office, Living Room, My Bedroom, Harmony’s Bedroom)

I’m also going to do a Marilyn Monroe themed bathroom, with my Vanity Fair collector’s edition framed!

    CONGRATULATIONS again!!! I am just sooooooo glad for the both of you! Finally! (Well, it was about time, wasn’t it? ;-) ) Now I’m looking forward to more new on your moving, decorating etc.

    (Btw: I’m not really doing the Cure but reading your blog and THE book ;-) got me decluttering CDs, DVDs, some books, and other stuff (mainly from the kitchen). Yeah, it feels GREAT! Sometimes even at work things come to my mind which I could throw or give away because when beeing honest with myself: I don’t need/use/like them anymore.)

    Have a great weekend! See ya,

    Hibernia

    Thank you so much! It will be a relief and hopefully a positive change in my life. I’m so glad your decluttering is going well!
