Way back in May, I signed a lease on a condo in Iowa City. The thought was two bedrooms meant 1 roommate, and 2 dogs between the two of us in a manageable space. Well, as always, there was a catch. The lease starts on August 15th. Nearly every lease in IC, including mine, runs out on July 30th. As a result, I had to find a place to live in the meantime, as well as a place to store my stuff. Our landlord has been absolutely awesome, and is letting us store our stuff in the garage. I’ve lucked out in the past month, as I’ve become really close with a friend of mine who also has a dog, and is letting me stay with her for the month.
So, now, I’m at the hard part. I have to simultaneously move all my stuff into storage, and over to Ginny’s, not go crazy, and finish packing before this all happens! I have rented the u-haul for 7 am on Saturday morning. Friday night, I’m moving the essentials that I’ll need for the next month, as well as Reya over to Ginny’s. After that, it’s back here to finish packing/organizing(because of course, I am so anal retentive that I won’t let people touch my stuff unless it is properly packed), getting a few hours of catnap, then picking up the truck.
Here’s to hoping that I can get everything done!!!

Yay, new theme! Did you know it only takes 4 mph wind to turn those windmills? It takes 8-9 mph wind to produce electricity, though. Learned that on a Sunday morning public access kids show. You’re jealous, believe me.
