All moved in
by Amanda on Feb.01, 2010, under Uncategorized
Well, we’re all moved in and I’m less than enthused. We went through the walkthrough yesterday and turned our key into our landlord. She is mailing our security deposit back to us within the next 2-3 days so I’ll be expecting that. It was saddening for me. I liked my apartment, the location, and being out on our own. Now I’m back at my parents house and it is SO crowded here. Randy and I have our bed in the hallway in the corner where it fits, Gracie sleeps in her crib in my mom’s room, and downstairs we have her swing/bouncer/bassinet all cramped around. Clothes are everywhere so it’s impossible to find anything and there is nowhere to put anything so it stays organized. Everything is every where. It’s driving me insane already. There are also people around constantly and Gracie has been very fussy so I think she’s having difficulty adjusting to all the people around and a new environment. They also keep their house around 75/80 for heat and we’re used to about 65/70 so I’m getting headaches.
On top of all of this, they discovered my car frame is bent so it is shot and not safe to drive. As a result we are using mom’s SUV for errands which sucks for sharing purposes and also for gas (we’ve gone through over $100 since thursday). We talked to a guy on Craigslist and we might be going to buy an SUV tomorrow but it’s 82 miles away so we need to solidify that he will be home and it’s not going to be gone before we make the long ass trip. Since Randy’s mom insures our vehicles for cost reasons, she needs to come with us so we can hit up the DMV right there and drive back instead of towing (oh the gas, OW). It’s really nice and my parents are going to lend us the money until our taxes come in next week to get it, thankfully.
Gracie goes to get her 4 month shots today which I’m EVER so excited about (Not, cranky cranky baby and emotional mommy) and we need to turn in our road runner box, get our mail forwarded (I forgot!), and stop by his mom’s house to discuss tomorrow with her. My lips are chapped too from the bitter cold and moving combined.
I’m just not in a very good mood right now. Life is hectic and I’m going to go nuts with all the crowdedness here. I like wide open spaces.
