Once More With Feeling!

We are moving to our "permanent" apartment tomorrow and Friday! I am freaking out a little bit. It is very short notice, but I am absolutely thrilled to have a more permanent home. I can actually get ready for the baby now. I've been having a really hard time with being in limbo for so long. We will be in the old apartment of two of our friends. Dave and Tara moved out and we are moving in. I am looking forward to making the apartment reflect our little family. I miss them being here, but it is all part of life.

Right now I am just grateful for all the amazing friends I've made here. It is a lot harder to be the one left behind than to be the one leaving. I am not used to it. I'm used to being the one leaving and having all the new and amazing experiences, but I am totally stoked for my friends to have such wonderful things happening in their lives. They certainly deserve it!

Maybe after we get moved in I will get some pictures of the nursery. I am so excited to give Benjamin a special place in our home. I'm terrified to have such a huge life change, but it is going to be well worth it in the end. All in all, life is not too bad.

The Final Countdown

Weekly trips to the doctor, waiting to move again, watching my friends leave, and trying to get ready for our little boy. That about sums up my life right now. We have less than a month until my due date. That is a scary thought. We have pretty much everything we need, but I don't want to set anything up because we are about to move again. I hate being in limbo.

We had some nonsense with our former landlord and ended up getting $125 of our $625 security deposit back. He was pretty much a jerk about it and didn't believe us when we tried to defend ourselves. Giving us 10 days notice to get out was really unprofessional and the whole thing left a bad taste in my mouth. Thankfully, that is over and done. We had a meeting at the apartments we are trying to get into and it is looking good. I just hope we can get in before the end of the month so we won't have to pay another month of rent for this one. We'll see, I suppose.

I also found out today that my senior paper either did not get submitted or was not good enough to pass. Either way, I have to resubmit it before I can get my diploma. It would be nice if I could have a relaxing final month of pregnancy, but life always seems to get in the way of my relaxation. It was nice to have my mom here for a week and then to go down to her house, but life was waiting for me when I got back here. Meh, life is just life and it always will be.
