Changes

Change is upon us here in the Moore-Hubbard household. Drew is graduating college in a few short weeks, we are moving into a new place next week, and as if that wasn't enough I've accepted a short term job in Washington D.C. that begins in 4 weeks. We are running around like chickens with our heads cut off. I have been packing up boxes like it's my job (I suppose it sort of is). Drew is finishing up all of his papers and projects (thank God I will never have to hear about that robot again!) and he's also getting into car accidents (okay just one) and making us (at least for a while) a one car household....and by car I mean Drew's truck which I can neither drive nor park so I'm hoping my Cobalt can bounce back. *fingers crossed*

It really is sinful how much stuff we have acquired in less than a year. We are in a one bedroom apartment, where have we been putting all of this stuff? I guess it's true, the more room you have...the more crap you acquire. I have not even begun to pack up our kitchen or bedroom. I'm a little disgusted with myself right now. Why do two people need this much stuff? I suppose the answer is we don't need it but rather we want it.  It never seemed like we had this much until the task of packing it all up fell to me, now I'm ready to take about half of these boxes to Goodwill!

As excited as I am for our new house I am going to miss this place. This was our first place as husband and wife and I still love it. We definitely are not moving for ourselves but rather to have room for company. If this apartment were in Wise County and we never had company we would stay in it for the next 5 years. It has been the perfect first place for us and I will be so sad to leave it.

Also, the mommy in me is freaking out a little bit about how all of this will affect Ike. Yes he is just a dog but that makes it harder. I can't explain to him what is happening and that he will have his own yard. And I know the poor little guy will miss all of his doggy friends here at the apartment. I know I sound like a freak but I hope he adjusts well. I'm also 100% sure he will not like his new shocking collar he will have to wear because we are so close to the road in our new place.

I can't wait to post pictures of the new place and I will give you all and update of my new job soon! I'm excited for the changes but still a little sad.
