Moving back in
On Wednesday I move into my apartment. I will room with my freshman roommate as well as our friend down the hall. My roommates have already moved in. I’m nervous. Moving is a big process. We rented a trailer to hook on to our car to put everything in there. Driving for four hours with a u haul hooked on the back is nerve-racking in itself. Then we have to move everything from the trailer up the stairs. Yikes!
Since we are renting an unfurnished apartment, we had to buy furniture. This included a mattress, which I got for a deep discount (since it was a discontinued model). Then we got the kitchen table, chairs (4 for $15 at a garage sale), tv (which I got a 27” tv for $25 at a garage sale) and a bedside table ($5). I love the deals. I have to frequent the garage sales to get the best deals. The garage-sale season continues until early fall.
Then I got some posters and post cards to decorate my room. Even though I don’t have cinderblock walls, I still have white walls, which asks for a little color. I have all of that on lockdown, but cooking by myself will be another challenge. We’ll see. It will probably come down to a lot of frozen meals.
