There have been quite a few drastic changes since the last post. It's been a very busy month and the work is not over yet.

We finally held strong and found an apartment we could agree on (Thomas and I, that is.) It's in beautiful Huntington Beach. More inland than coastal. We have a wonderful assortment of shops and restaurants at our beck and call. Apart from commuting to work, I should not require my car much. Which is great news if I happen upon a good spot for parking!

The apartment becomes available feb 12th. Although, for moral/ethical reasons (and to not upset family members) we are waiting an extra 4 days or so to move in. The marriage will be the first day we get off together. Then a family celebration on March 1st.

It's already been a lot of work. We haven't even started packing. I've been the one to call around and set up accounts for renter's insurance, the electric company and our cable/internet services. Valuables have been recorded and photographed, installation times have been set up and all available friend's and family's trucks have been requested.

Now just comes the heavy lifting and organizing, right?
