It's been a good week! Got moved out of the apartment, cleaned it out and got our deposit back.
Moved into the new house, unpacked all the boxes and put everything in its place...Wel ALMOST everything! The only thing left to do are minor little projects that will have to wait because they cost money! (i.e. we need a shelf for all our movies which are sitting on the side board, can't afford to get a bookshelf now (we want one from IKEA which matches the rest of our living room furniture) Therefore, it will have to wait till we build up the old bank account again!
It feels homey! I like that it's a mixture of old and modern. It creaks like an old house when you go up the stairs and walking around the upstairs area (Which will really make it difficult to for anyone to sneak around as it is so loud! LOL!)It makes other weird creaking and squeaking noises, but I just chalk it up to a house that is settling? It's too new to have any history!
I like that there is space to breath! Though space means it's a bit colder in the house (I was spoiled by the apartment, I NEVER had to run the heat which meant our bills were quite low!) I feel like we can have people over to visit and it won't bother neighbors, we are all squished like sardine's in a tiny place, PLUS I can actually sit at our dining room table! Overall, I feel good about this new home and new place in life.
All our neighbors are a bit older, so that will be interesting! We did have neighbors on one side come over and introduce themselves, which was nice! (Of course they are old enough to be my grandparents, but that's ok!)
I hope that things start looking a bit brighter though! We need to start making more positive memories here now. I think between moving and trying to adjust things over to the new address and whatever is entailed with moving, we are a bit tired and grumpy (mix that with the fact that we aren't used to being around each other so much since he's gone for 5 days of each week and you might have a bit more added on drama!) It will be fine!
I hoping that this is a perfect opportunity for a new start of sorts and whether it be here or through activities of some sort, I will be able to make friends. I'm tired of being alone. I really miss a lot about home (including having an actual summer vs. the rainy 55 degreed weather we have!) I miss my friends and having an active social life. I'm hoping that this will all change...Or in the least I need it to! So hopefully from this point forward, we can move forward to making better memories and creating new relationships in this new life chapter!
Live, Laugh, Love.
Last I wrote, I had just moved into my current rental and was getting ready to start an temp job that turned out to be a complete and utter nightmare and end as quick as it began! Thankfully, not a month later I was able to find what is my current job and I can proudly say I have been working out for over a year now with potentials of a promotion and raise! (More details to follow, I don't want to jinx myself just yet, so if you are reading this, please send out all the positive vibes, say a prayer, lots of love and care as this girl could use the boost! Not only would this job be a great step in the right direction for me and my career, it would also put me back on a schedule that I painfully crave to have as my current schedule is a nightmare! Don't get me wrong, my job is good and pay AMAZING...Buuuuttt...The hours are ever changing from day-to-day and week-to-week that its hard to have anything of a life much less see my hubby who is working a lot of hours as well.
