Time to move

Now is the time for all good moving skills to rise to the surface!

I was given the key to my apartment last night and it has been a flurry of activity ever since.  It seems if I don’t get all the utilities in my name right away then I will be charged a reconnect fee and I don’t want that. 

Now that everything is computerized you would think this would be a snap, but the computer actually slows it all down. None of the programs recognize my new address so I have had to make calls to each one and now I have to wait for the computer to update before it is considered official!

Someone else has their name on the cable in my apartment and he had to be tracked down before I could hook up my Internet and cable! 

I have been running up and down the steps and across the parking lot loading boxes of books and house wares into my car and then unloading them at the new apartment.  That becomes even more difficult Saturday when my parking lot will be closed for resurfacing and I have to park three blocks away!  The main road from here to there has been closed and will not reopen before I move either.

But with a little luck, by this time next week everything will be moved except the large things which I am paying movers to take care of.  In between then and now I have birthdays and graduation and homecoming parties as well as two doctor appointments!

Could life be any busier? 

Still, it is all good busyness and for that I am grateful.
