Movin' on up

So here goes nothing.  When I was with all the KG's in June I got the call that changed how the path of my life was going.  Here we are a month later and getting ready to close on the sale of my house.  This past month has been a crazy one.  I have decided I need an assistant cause selling a house is a full time job. 

As I read my last post I realize how much has changed.  I am no longer moving to Michigan, but I am moving up to northern KC near Liberty.  I have an apartment that is technically in Kansas City, but only about 10 min from my parents house in Liberty.  I'm so excited about the fresh start and apartment living.  I realized recently that I have not ever lived in an apartment complex.  Yes, there was the 4 -plex in college, but not an official complex.  I'm looking forward to hopefully making new friends and having access to a pool.  We aren't talking just any pool, this is a heated salt water pool that will be open year round.  Yes, a year round outdoor pool in Missouri.  I have a 2 bedroom apartment.  The apartment technically has more square footage than my house.  I will have 2 twin beds in my spare room, so feel free to come visit at any time.  I'm looking forward to the simplicity of apartment living.  I have a nice size patio and no neighbors above me.  Hopefully the neighbors next to me aren't as noisy as the ones in college (some of you will get this, sorry for those of you that don't).  As long as I don't have to leave notes on their door explaining what I hear every evening we are good. 

I will have to drive for work and I'm even looking forward to that time to wind down after work.  It will be about at 45 minute drive with traffic. 

On another note, I'm so excited for the Summer Olympics.  I have all next week off work and it will be hard to make myself get ready to move and not just sit and watch TV.  I'm going to move the majority of my furniture and boxes on Wednesday, but I will be leaving my TV and DVR box here at my current place until Friday as I won't have the new service being set up until Friday at my new place.  Sad I know.
