Moving...

We're moving again. Not nearly as far this time...we're actually moving to a new apartment in the same complex we currently live in. We're downsizing from a 2-bedroom apartment to a 1-bedroom one. It's just the two of us, and while the extra space was nice, saving money is more important at the moment. We want to be able to buy a house in a few years, so this is the first step on the path to doing that.

The move date is on the 20th, so right now we have a little less than 2 weeks to pack everything and get all the necessary details straightened out. We'll get everything done, but it's just stressful right now, particularly for Erin who handles most of the "administrative" stuff. I'm going to try to do most of the packing, but we've both been sick the past week so we're kind of off to a late start. It's not the best time of year to be doing this kind of thing. We just got back from 5 days in Tennessee for Thanksgiving and will be going back for Christmas right after we move. Hectic probably isn't a strong enough word.

I'll try to take pictures of the new apartment once we get everything unpacked. It's on the first floor (we were on the second), and it has a small deck looking out to a lake.
