I am so anxious to move up to our new home in Dalton Gardens, I can hardly wait for the time to pass. On the other hand, I can't believe 3 months have already gone since we bought our new house. Then we were saying we would be moving in 9 months. Now we can saying we are moving in 6 months... Jerry's official termination date is 03/31/2010 or sooner! Jerry feels that the date will probably be much sooner than 03/31/2010. Of course, he's hoping that it won't and that he'll be able to work until 03/31/2010, for Insurance purposes... So far, I have 94 boxes packed. A lot of the boxes are smaller (12 x 9.5"), but most of the boxes I have packed have been smaller to medium size and just a few large and very few extra large. I need to make sure that I can handle the boxes myself, so they can't be too big or too heavy!
Last weekend, we picked up new bedroom furniture for our guest bedroom. When I was in North Carolina for Jerry's niece Dawn's wedding I really liked her choice of furniture in her guest bedroom. I asked Dawn and she told me where I could find the set and the name of the collection. I went online and was deciding on the pieces I wanted. Since I am spending a lot of time posting classified ad's on craig's list I decided to search on craig's list for the collection. I actually found someone selling a brand new set. They purchased the set for his wife's 85 yr. old mother. Unfortunately, she suddenly passed away before she had an opportunity to enjoy it. The son/daughter were paying her mother's mobile home mortgage and rental space fee during her mother's hospital stay before she passed. Her mobile home had been sold and they needed to get the set removed from the house. They sold a dresser, mirror, nightstand and metal headboard for a full size bed for more than 1/2 price. We purchased the set with the intention of selling the metal headboard and eventually purchasing a poster head and foot board.
We were both delighted with our bargain!!! It was worth a 100 miles round trip and moving it up north along with everything else. We will wait until we are up there to purchase the rest of the set. Here is a picture of the collection:
