so the plan to move into our new rental house off post at the end of the month has just been accelerated. the people currently living in our house are signing a lease for a house on post as i type. this means that they will spend the weekend moving OUT of their current house (my future house) and in theory, we will sign for the new house sometime towards the end of this week coming. anyone with a strong sudden desire to assist in the moving process next weekend is cordially invited to the Lansing/Leavenworth area - but realistically the party will consist of us, a couple of my friends up here and my parents (because they rock).
i dont know if there will be any painting involved, but it's possible. we will need to buy curtains, shower curtains, and to pay for the duct work and carpets to be professionally cleaned/disinfected.
in addition to the obvious excitement for a change of scenery, this move presents the relief that we have been longing for: life alone with just the two of us. although i dont know with 100% certainty, i am mostly sure that our squatters will not be making the move with us. please pray that this is how it works out. regarless, they will be gone by the end of the month, but i am hoping that they will opt to move only once - away. now. this will be the topic of discussion tonight at my house, as neither of us have had a chance to break the news to them yet seeing as we just found out this afternoon.
i will post pictures of the new casa as soon as i have any (or in reality, about a month after i move in...) it'll be great!
