FROM THE MARINA TO...

Ok I will cut right to the chase, Trevor and I are moving in together!! After living in my adorable studio for 8, yes 8, years, I will be moving to a new apartment with him this month!

This has been a roller coaster of emotions so far and I have a feeling the “fun” won’t stop for awhile. We saw the place exactly one week ago on Thursday after seeing a truly awful in-law unit that looked nice on the Craigslist post. I never really thought that I wanted a modern apartment but I did really want the amenities that come with a modern apartment. The new apartment comes with a dishwasher, heating and A/C and a washer and dryer. Those from other parts of the country wont be that impressed, but take it from a girl who has been hand washing her dishes for 8 years, it’s pretty magical. The apartment itself is in a pretty fancy condo building with roof decks, fire pits and a gym. It’s pretty crazy. I will share more pics soon but for now, if you want to know more, you can check out the Rockwell.

A new apartment plus moving in with the BF means new decor and a melding of personal things. I, of course, went in to overdrive from the moment we saw the place. I literally woke up that night thinking about what kind of bar stools I wanted to put with the modern marble kitchen island. I couldn’t stop pinning things to my “New Apartment” board. Honestly, I still can’t stop decorating in my mind. But now is the time where the rubber is going to hit the road and we are actually going to need to order things. Eeek.

I can’t wait to take you along on the ride. From the moving checklist template on Google docs to which items to spend and splurge on, there are going to be so many hopefully helpful posts! And for anyone with tips on living with the BF, let me know ;-)
