Yep we're still in North Carolina. We haven't left yet! This last month here we have moved out of our 3-bedroom house and into a small 1-bedroom apartment on the other side of town.
Without going into much detail, our lease wasn't extended so we had to scramble a little bit to get all of our goods packed up, picked up and moved into our new place.
With a little help from up above, we were able to arrange for our three moves in a very short time. Moving overseas we had a long term storage move which was mainly our large furniture (our house in Georgia is furnished) and any other items we wouldn't need for the next few years. We also have an unaccompanied baggage shipment which was everything we would like to have immediately when we get there. The last move was everything else, all of our household goods that we will need on a day to day basis there.
It was a long four days but the movers got it all packed and taken away. Hopefully it all makes it in one piece. It was a little difficult to sort everything out and there were definitely things that didn't make it into the right piles.
Now were finally settled in our new place and just trying to enjoy this last month in N.C. Surprisingly the one bedroom is working out pretty nicely. Mara is sleeping in the closet but seems to understand that that's "her room". Yes we'd like a little more room but it's working and doable for the next month.
The time is flying. This week we have Josh's change of command and then he starts out processing at base. Before we know it we will be headed up north to visit family and then flying overseas! Although I am not wishing us gone it will be nice to finally be truly settled again.
