What's that?!

Another new and exciting adventure I am about to embark on?

Yes it is!! Today I am excited, today I am ecstatic, today I am happy! All because my wonderful sister and her hubby are moving to their first house! Why would that be exciting to me? That is because I will be moving into the apartment she is in now.

I realize how this sounds... That I am ready for her to move her butt out of there! Although this might be a relatively true statement, It is not because I want to get rid of her. I am so so so excited for her to embark on her next adventure in her life.

Let me just clarify something here. This apartment I am moving into is in the basement of my childhood home. Although this isn't the lap of luxury I still cannot wait! You see this will be where William and I live when we first get married.

It has also been no secret that when I moved an hour away from my home I did not like it at all. (Little side note... I have grown a lot since moving an hour away. SO although I didn't like it I have improved in some ways.) That is just one more way that I am excited to move back.

And although I am so so very excited, I am finding that I will actually miss this little place I have made mine. My very first apartment. It has been a time where I learned I could get by on my own. I just don't prefer it. I have learned that I am not very good at cooking. Not in the ability of cooking but in the habit. I do not have a habit of making my meals. I go out to eat waaayyyyy too much. I have learned that I will never be grown enough to not be afraid of a storm. In fact just last night I was crying on the phone to my fiance when a huge storm came through. Yet here I am. Able to say that I didn't run that I was here. How wonderful.

In the next few weeks William and I will be "fixing" our first place. But really since my sister made it look so awesome we are hoping we will just really make it our own. Then I will be moving some of my belongings to my new little home. And in a few months when my current lease is up, I will move the rest of my stuff to my new place. I cannot wait!!
