I thought I would be able to update every couple of days, but this class got pretty busy. It's amazing how busy I am when I'm not working. This class is a lot of work and I'm glad I'm only taking one this semester. I'm having a great time and I've learned a lot, but I'm glad it's almost over. Monday is our last class...yay! Then it's off to California to spend time with family. While I'm in California, Rod will most likely be moving our stuff to our new apartment. We found a great apartment in Shirlington. It's about the same size and has about the same amount of closet space. The kitchen has more counter top space, newer kitchen appliances, and is open to the living room and dining room. I'm really looking forward to that. Also, the bedroom is a similar size to what we have. We applied for the apartment and we were just waiting to hear we got approved to put in our notice that we were leaving our apartment but I got a phone call today saying that we had to give our intent to leave our apartment to be approved for the new apartment. WHAT? Isn't that backward? I mean we should be approved because we have great credit and we are great tenants, but it's still stupid. Anyway, we complied with their rules and we put in our intent to vacate for August 31st. Hopefully, Rod will be moving our stuff on August 15th. We'll have half a month to move our stuff and clean the old apartment. I don't really want to move because I love where we live, but it will save us money. I'm going to miss being able to walk to shopping stuff but at least we'll still be in walking distance to restaurants and a grocery store. The grocery store is weird though...it's two floors...very strange. The negative besides no shopping is the metro is not in walking distance. My poor husband is going to have to take the bus to the metro which is going to add time to his commute. That really sucks and I wish we weren't moving so far out, but this apartment is really nice for the price. Here are some pictures of the new apartment.
