So if you follow The Longley's in San Diego, you know that July 7th was their apartment-aversarry! Well, we met because we live in the same complex, and we moved in only days after they did. Actually, our first encounter was Emily's husband Frank helping us move furniture from our Uhaul to our apartment. So tomorrow is our apartment-aversarry! When we got married, we had "planned" (I knew it wouldn't work out and was only a matter of time before we changed our minds) to stay with a family that hubbers lived with for some time before we met. Well in a nutshell, personalities start clashing when a married couple lives with a family of four. So in a matter of two days, we applied for our apartment, took out an advance on our BAH and moved from Santee, Ca to La Mesa, Ca. We'd been referred to the complex by then-friends, and we in love with our first apartment. Here's a little list of things we've gone through since then.
- Moving AGAIN from a two bedroom to a one bedroom
- Getting "adult" furniture
- Months and months of week-long underways
- A sprained ankle
- What I still swear MUST have been swine flu
- Some trials and tribulations with friendships
- Adopting both our baby girls :]
- Making some really amazing friends
- Moving AAGGAAIINN to a two bedroom from a one bedroom
And I can't even list everything else. Needless to say we have grown and changed a lot, and getting our own apartment was a big life changing event. At times I wish we'd sucked it up and stayed with the family, but now I know we made the right decision.
And hopefully this blog will stand as a good little taste of getting back into blogging, because lord knows I have plenty of things to say!
Happy complex-anniversary!!! ha
