New, Temporary "Home"

We moved out of our house over the weekend of May 7-10th.
  • Friday 7th: Gary came to St. Louis and helped us load a 26 ft moving truck full of stuff--thank god Gary knew better than us and insisted on coming down to help; what fools we were thinking we didn't need help!! THANK YOU GARY!!!!
  • Sat 8th: Brian drove the moving truck to KS where all of our non-essential-for-daily-living belongs were put into Coleman's extra garage to store. Meanwhile, I packed up the rest of our stuff in St. Louis. That night Brian went to his buddy's bachelor party in KC (not the best pre-moving routine, but somehow we managed the next day).
  • Sunday 9th: Brian flew back to STL, but was delayed 2 hrs :( Around 4 pm the two of us loaded up at 16-ft truck of stuff to take to our new place. The two of us unloaded everything, then returned the rental truck, went back to the old house to get some clothes and stuff we had left behind and finally got to bed around 11pm.
  • In the following two days we made subsequent trips to clean the house and get the remaining items left behind.
Our new location is an apartment very close to Brian's school more in the center of STL, MO (versus north STL where we were before). We are subleasing the apartment through the end of August which is when Brian will be finished with his MBA.

New Address:
7321 Pershing Ave, Apt 1W
University City, MO 63130

On Friday May 14th, we officially closed and were no longer homeowners.

The plan is.....well we don't know for sure yet. We both need to secure jobs in KS before we can make plans on exactly where we will be living, what we can afford, etc. Until then we are just enjoying not having to mow the lawn :)
