Moving in with the boyfriend

I am officially moving in with my boyfriend, scary! But exciting!

I was so busy at work last week and my boyfriend decided to go look at an apartment without me. We had already looked at an apartment by the same management company so I trusted him to look at this one on his own. He ended up liking it and called me and said he wanted to take it. I told him "go ahead."

After all of the credit checks and everything else that is involved with getting a NYC apartment, we signed the lease yesterday. I finally got to see it yesterday and I really like it! It's a great apartment and I think that we are going to be really happy there. It has a dishwasher and a breakfast bar, and it's really nice.

I feel bad because the boyfriend was so excited about finding the place and moving in with me and I felt like I couldn't get into moving in with him without seeing it. He went around last weekend telling everyone that we had put an application in to get an apartment. He was hopping around like a little kid. I felt so bad that I couldn't share in the joy with him. Now I can! I am really happy and can't wait to move in together. I'm excited and anxious to just get in there and decorate (with little suprts of pink!)

I am dreading the moving part. I don't have a lot to move but it still is horrible just thinking about. I kind of just want to move my stuff and let the boyfriend move his own stuff, but I know that's mean. I just feel like it's his own stuff and not mine. I'm hoping that it will be different after we move in together and get our own stuff to decorate. I really want everything to be "ours."

Apartment Time!

We got an apartment! It is such a relief to know where I will be living. There is so much to do, but I can handle it because I am doing it with someone else. I can't believe I'm moving in with a boy! It's so scary and so exciting at the same time.

I am going to sign my lease on Wednesday and I still have not seen it. It is crazy that I am going to be moving into a place that I have never seen. I must really trust and love my boyfriend. I'm sure it's a wonderful place.

I can't wait to go shopping and buy new things. I think that may be the most exciting part!

Forgetful

I keep forgetting about this bog. I have plenty of time to write at work and never keep up with it. As a writer, I am ashamed of myself.

Danny is taking his last (hopefully!) test for the CPA. I cannot tell you how long this has taken. It has been practically our whole relationship and it is very stressful, for both of us. He is so grumpy and not fun when he is studying. I understand that he is working really hard and I truley feel bad that he has to work full-time and then study for hours, but it is annoying! I can't remember the last time we actually had a weekend to ourselves. Possibly the cruise?

I am actually looking forward to doing something fun and not stressful this weekend. I have felt so stressed for a long time, in part due to the boyfriend ;-) I need time to just relax and have fun. I'm counting on my lovely friends in Connecticut for that!
