I'm in Florida!

Posted by Alexandra at Studio Alexandra

I made it to Florida on Wednesday afternoon. It was a great day to drive - beautiful and sunny, if a little windy. I drove through the sticks of Georgia for what seemed like forever before hitting I-10 near Tallahassee. I spent the evening reacquainting myself with the base and the surrounding towns, even managing to look at a couple of townhouses for rent.

On Thursday, jet-lag caught up with me and I spent the afternoon napping. Friday turned out to be a very productive day - I was full of energy after all that sleep. I drove around to see quite a few more townhouses and found the right one in the right location. I signed the lease and will move in next Friday. Not that I have much to move in, having come here with two suitcases and one carry-on.

Next week will be mostly relaxing, taking care of utilities, and good old school work. Then after move-in day, the painting fun can start. I'm already looking forward to it.
