I hate moving!

So this is sort of a long story as to why we are moving today... but I'll give you the short of it. We've been looking around at places to rent since Shelby will be here in a few more months and we need more room. Trey and I go just about stir crazy in this apartment everyday... so anyhow we want to rent b/c we know we may not be in Atlanta for much more than another year. So we finally decided to see what our current apartment complex had available. Turns out the only vacant apartment was a 3 bedroom! Perfect- we loved it! Well they didn't want to work with us on the price (Chip works as off duty security here so we THANKFULLY don't have to pay the "going" rate)- anyhow some people came by seeking to rent a 2 bedroom yesterday and wanted the floor plan we have. It worked wonderfully in our favor! BUT these people wanted to move in Wednesday- yep a week from today. So we told management - "this is what we want and if you will work with us to get to this rate- we'll move today" and they agreed. AHHH! That is a scream of excitement and HELP!
Today we began the process of moving all of our stuff (down the hall). What a pain. Trey hung in there best he could but he was getting tired also. Tomorrow is more of the same. Moving the "little stuff" and Friday is when we'll move everything else. Soooo ya know if you are around Friday (or tomorrow) and want to help- call me! Please....
I'll update again after the move- thankfully the internet will be up and running at our new place within 48hours (and as Karen reminded me... our friend Eric would roll his eyes and say "the whole internet").
Wish us luck!
