3 Days from the Big Move

Well, we are now three days away from the big move to San Antonio.  Man, I never knew that moving out of state would be so much work!  I am so thankful that I have a few days off work to help get things ready around the house.  

We found an Apartment to live in while we get to know San Antonio.  It will be really interesting to see how everything fits into the Apartment. Going from a 1800 sq foot house with a 3 car garage to a 1200 sq foot Apt with a 1 car garage will make space tight.  Call me crazy, but I am actually looking forward to going back into one.  No more yard work, no more maintenance that we are responsible for.  I think it will open up our weekends to enjoy each other and get to know a new city.  

The house is a complete mess with stuff pulled out and organized as much as possible.  We have been working hard to try and organize stuff on this end while we have more room instead of organizing on the other end where we won't have as much room.  I finally got the kitchen done, just needs to be cleaned, but I still need to finish up all the stuff in the garage.  It will come together, but I know I will be tired in the end.  Oh well, its part of life.  

I am really going to miss all my friends here in Phoenix.  Its rare to find such good friends as I have here.  We are eager to find a new church in San Antonio and get plugged in to begin building new friendships.  I think that will be a hard part about moving.  Rebuilding a strong circle of friends.  

I need to get back to it, but gotta share one other thing that God did for us.  We sold our washer and dryer with the house, and they are not included in apartments in San Antonio.  They do provide hook-ups but just not the actual unit.  So we began to start looking for one on sale this past weekend.  Well,  we were able to find the washer and dryer both on a major sale because they were the floor model, and scratch and dent!  I am so happy I won't have to go to a laundry mat once we move!
