Inventorying my Stuff
Mar. 29th, 2010 07:58 pmI submitted an online order for the movers. I have not heard back from the town homes and I don't even know if they have accepted my rental application, let alone if any units will become available in August. I still need to reserve the movers NOW if I expect to have any hope of them being available on July 31st.
It was an interesting experience going through all of my stuff to see what large items I have, estimate how many boxes I will need, and determine a dollar value for all of my possessions. I suspect that I estimated too low, but I suppose I can live with having them add on to the estimate later. Actually, some of this old hand-me-down furniture I have may just go to the dumpster. I don't know if I want it in my new place.
My new place. I have pretty much embraced the idea of moving. I just don't know where yet. I am seriously considering talking to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shrijani 's awesome real estate agent and seeing if I can afford to buy my own town home. Some cozy little place with a garage and my own washer and dryer. They will hopefully take care of yard work and snow removal. That's my dream right now. I don't need much to be happy.
Alas, I was hoping to travel this summer, but lately the destinations I have chosen have had some kind of disaster. Peru- mudslides, Chile- earthquakes, and Mexico- swine flu. I am afraid to plan a trip anywhere else for fear of provoking another catastrophe! Looks like this summer I will be going to Boulder again for the National Ki Aikido Seminar with the International President of our style. He's flying in from Japan. This is going to be a big deal. Though I have seen him already at least 5 times, there is always more to learn. Not to mention the fact that Boulder is a great town with great people who I love to visit!
So my housing upgrade is still moving forward. Once I set my mind in a direction, the rest of me will follow. If only I can get up the nerve, or gumption, or whatever it takes to call that real estate agent...
