#Adulting



We bought a couch!!!!!!!!


& chair & coffee table & side tables & a lamp(not pictured)... Basically a whole living room set, except the entertainment stand but it will come in time. (but we are looking at an Ikea one.. damn that store and all their awesomeness!)

We got it at Rooms To Go over the weekend and it will be delivered the weekend we move in. Everything is slowly coming together and my anxiety/stress levels are nowhere near as high as they were. 

I have had a couple minor panic attacks over the last few weeks about other "adutling" stuff, bills, health insurance; nothing major but all things that will cause me to over think and stress and then possibly have a little attack. 

So one major decor purchase is done, we will actually have a a place to sit and enjoy our new living room when we move in!

I can not wait to see it all in place! Im just hoping it will all fit.

We were taking measurements the other night, and for not having alot of stuff we though 'oh we will be fine it will all fit'... well now im worried its going to look like giant cluster f**k.

But, at least it will be cozy...
I know I'v said it already but this month needs to be over already!


Happy Monday!

TWO WEEKS!!!

In just two short weeks J & I will be signing our lease and getting the keys to our first real place together. 

& I am starting to feel very very overwhelmed. 

The perfect display of how I feel. 

I cant even think straight because I know there is so much to be done, okay well it might not be a lot but I feel like it is. 

We have our walk though Wednesday which will hopefully ease my mind bit. 
*side note it go pushed back from this Sunday which caused me to have a mini freak out and get slightly angry at them but we will make it work*

I'm getting boxes from work this week ( yay office supply delivery)

BUT we are also watching his brothers apartment dog this weekend and our current living situation doesn't like dogs living in her home. Which I should have said no too seeing as there is so many more productive thinks I could be doing! 

Things will come together in the end and it not like we have that much to move right now anyway. Most of the big things are taken care of. 
We've got the living room suite, electricity is being turned on the day before we get there, we will hopefully get internet set up this weekend. 
*fingers crosses*

I fell like there is so much to do, so much to buy, and so much to pack. Its been a very stressful/rough week. I'm a planner and hes much more laid back, but we've been trying to compromise.

I'm just read for this month to be over so we can be done with the move and stress about something else. 

Any tips to east stress, decorate a small apartment and make moving easier would be greatly appreciated.

Its not going to be perfect yet





But it will feel so perfect it hurts!


J and I are very excited about the start of our first big adventure together. This is the first time we will really live together just us. We will finally have a place to call our own and have cute little fur babies  baby running around everywhere. 

I have sat in my little cube everyday since we put money down to hold our spot planning the inside of our humble abode. 

Iv got champagne taste on a club soda budget! I'v mindlessly browsed Ikea, Target, Wayfair and many more deciding what colors we want to go with, what matches what  and wonder where Im going to fit all of my clothes. 

But I know we wont be able to afford all the new matching furniture yet. The TV stand will be to dark, the  kitchen table with creak with old age ( J's grandfather hand built it), the one nightstand, the hope chest, and the big dresser don't match. It all drives my little OCD, ridiculously organized, wannabe interior designer mind wack but I will push through and we will slow have the coziest, most stylish 707 sqft apartment ever. 


Photos will come in January when we actually get to tour our unit... But we are really keeping fingers crossed for a 3rd floor. 

But here is the basic layout for now (sorry its so tiny)
