We're moving.
Jan. 9th, 2006 10:37 amWe're looking for a smaller, cheaper apartment and we'll probably start a new lease February 1 so that we've got all of February to move. It's especially important to have the whole month since we're planning to be out of town for at least one weekend.
By February 28th, Jodi and I will be in our new apartment, Amanda will be in Riverview, our current apartment will be empty and spotless, and our new apartment will not look like shit. No, really.
Since we're talking about a 600sqft 1/1, we'll be selling a lot of our stuff and buying smaller stuff. (For example, we'll sell our large dining room table, which is even larger with the drop leaf, and get a smaller one that we saw at K mart.) There will also be an attempt at actual design -- mission-esque furniture, bright primary-color linens in the bedroom, and possibly earthier tones in the living/dining room.
We'll only need one TV, VCR, and DVD player. We'll be selling our large dressers. (I can't even remember how the hell we got that buffet table into the master bedroom, and we certainly won't have room for it in the new place.)
Why are we moving? To improve our finances (we didn't really need the second bedroom, as living with Amanda proved to us), and to pare down our accumulation of stuff so that we'll only have 600sqft of stuff when it's time to move across the country later. It's a lot easier to shuffle things back and forth when we're only moving by a mile.
More details will be posted as they become available. If anyone wants a computer, Jodi will probably be selling hers, and I'll be offering the parts of my old computer (it was Athlon 1800-based, I think) to a good home.
