Hello, Goodbye.

“Why can't we get all the people together in the world that we really like and then just stay together? I guess that wouldn't work. Someone would leave. Someone always leaves and then we have to say good-bye. I hate good-byes. I know what I need. I need more hellos.” Peanuts Snoopy
I am so excited to move to Manhattan, KS and start my new life with my (soon-to-be) new husband. Hello KANSAS! Hello No more Long Distance Relationship! Hello Married Life! Hello The Rest of My Life!
But, I have always had a hard time saying goodbye. I will miss my friends, Dancing on New Years with Lindsey, Coaching with Brandy, Long Talks over Margaritas with Mom, Cigars with Dad, Watching my Nephew Grow...I will miss everything and everyone I am leaving behind. Here is to you, Here is to New Adventures, Here is to the Love of My Life. I love you all. Never a Goodbye. Always a Hello when I See You Later.

3 People + 2 Closets= Not enough space!

I am moving to Manhattan, Kansas in July. Don't get me wrong, I am so excited to be able to live in the same state as my fiance! (Finally!) But, now, we are faced with a dilema. Originally, and up until about 2 weeks ago, we did not think Elizabeth and I would be able to move for quite a while. Josh and I had picked out our new apartment, the nice 3 bedroom with the walk-in closets.



Last month was the deadline for Josh to extend/renew his current apartments lease. Given the fact we did not think we would be there until at the earliest September, Josh renewed through September. Now, Josh lives in a nice apartment, it is just a small two bedroom. We need a three bedroom initially, not just for the space for three people...but the closets! Josh has two closet apartment. He uses both closets already. Elizabeth has enough clothes for two closets...and I, well, I have enough to fill a small room. As you recall, this is a picture of just some of my clothes...

So, our dilema is do we break the lease and pay a bunch of money? Or, do we suck it up for a couple months stuffing Elizabeth and I into one room and cramming Josh into the other? I have found a few closet organization units that could come in handy!

Decisions, Decisions.
