Bittersweet..

Today is moving day!I have feelings of happiness but then also pings of sadiness because Big Man and I are leaving our first 'home' together. I'm excited that were moving to a bigger place where the furbaby will be happier and that were going to be closer (really close) to his Mom and sisters but I know that things won't be the same as living on our own.

I must admit though that I'm VERY happy to be moving out of our current neighborhood. When we first moved there, it was nice and quiet and we were part of the very few people who lived there. But they have started filling up the apartments with all kinds of hoodlums (sounds like something my nan would say) and hood rats and the neighborhood has seemed to go to shit...the police were honestly out in front of the complex last night when I got home from work and were asking people if they wanted to press charges and when me and Big Man were out on the balcony enjoying my after sex cigarette you could hear said apartment smashing and throwing things in his house and there has been more than one occasion that we heard gunshots from our bedroom....ugh!


Anywho...because I want to remember our apartment mid-move I decided to post some pictures of the destruction of moving.(Our boxes stacked in our dining room)
(We actually do have fish somewhere behind there)

(Our lovely living room)

(Our kitchen last night..as you can see barely packed)

(Our bare bathroom)

(This is probably the first time I saw my floor in weeks :) )

Oh and since I will be busting my ass today, moving and unpacking crap, I am treating myself to a little beach excursion tomorrow! : )
I will be heading to this pretty place:
Clearwater Beach!
So if any of you ladies live in the Tampa/Clearwater area and want to join me for some fun in the sun and adult beverages, your more than welcome to come! : )
See ya Thursday lovies!! ♥

Good luck with the move! I'm so jealous you'll be going to the beach, have fun. It looks like you deserve it after this! :)

Don't worry! I saved my kitchen for last too. There's just SO MUCH STUFF in that room!

Good luck moving today! I hope it goes smoothly & nothing is lost or broken.

Have a wonderful time at the beach tomorrow. I wish I was in Florida. Of course, the only place I go is Cape Coral to see my dad...maybe I'll have to take a road trip next time I'm down there!

Good luck with the move...I think the best part is unpacking.

Greg said...

Ugh, I hate moving, even though I've done it like nine times. Hopefully the new neighborhood works out and is a little safer. Cheers.

Muppet Soul said...

I'll be at the beach in Santa Monica on Friday... With you in spirit.

Your apartment sounds like our first apartment together - you're all excited at first because it's your first place, it's seemingly nice.. And then before you know it when people come over you're saying "nope, not a car backfire - gunshots. Pass the salt?"

You can only go up, baby.

Kelli said...

Have fun moving! I hope you aren't as sore as I was when we got done!

Chatham said...

Ahhh, the joys of moving, haha!
