I'm really glad.
I'm so so beyond happy. I'm gonna move all my stuff and then all my furniture.
I'm gonna deal with the day later.
Some folks are finding their own mini version of September First chaos, though.
My complex did have other people moving in, so I think they just everyone moves in on August first, so still had a bit of the craziness. But driving in was so much better than it would have been.
But more time before move in often means getting first DIBs at the best of Austin Christmas.
I did find some plates and bowls, like handmade that I've been really enjoying. I just found them on the street. I hope by that I'll have a clothing rack. But if I somehow don't, definitely looking for one of those from Austin.
