Well, it's been a crazy week. We left Kansas Monday morning and drove to Columbus, OH. Next morning we finished our drive to Frederick, MD. After Columbus our drive got really nice with all the mountains and trees changing colors. Arrived in Frederick and Dave checked in and we got a hotel for the night. Next morning we woke up and went straight to GMH to see about housing. On our way, TMO called and said our stuff was here. We told them we were on our way to housing, so the TMO gal said she'd give us two hours. (Yeah right, I know... finding a place in two hours)... So we went to housing aka GMH and they had a two bedroom and three bedroom ready to be moved into! *at this the heavens opened up and God personally winked at Dave and I* We went and looked at both the places and decided on the two bedroom. I like the layout more and really I'm pretty sure it was the same sqaure footage just smaller rooms in the three bedroom. So, Dave had to leave at that point to start inprocessing and I went to the GMH office to start the paperwork. Just as she was handing me the keys to our new home, the driver called me and wanted to know if we were ready. Told him "Heck yes and I'd meet him there" Then Dave called and said he was done for the day, so I picked him up and then we drove to our new home and opened the door for our movers. SWEEEEEEEEEEETTTTT! While the movers were unloading I called and set up our cable and internet to be done the next morning. WAHOO. :) All good.
One very sad note. Upon unwrapping our couch from storage we discovered it had mold on it.
:( Very sad. So, we are getting rid of that (it's sitting on our porch right now) and will be picked up next week and yesterday we went out shopping for a new living room set. Kind of bittersweet. We loved the couch we had, but we did find one we liked, so it's all swell now. Now we just have to wait for it to be delivered. They said the end of November but we're REALLY hoping it will come before Thanksgiving when Dave's parents come up for the first visit.
