I started packing like a mad man. I went a few places and picked up boxes and slavaged/stole a bunch from the backs of stores. I went around at night and got some that were on a cart out back of a strip mall and they were Frito-Lay boxes, which ended up being amazing, though technically the property of Frito-Lay as they are returnable.

Congrats on finding a house! Packing already, when do you close? Where is the house? Send me some pictures! Congrats to you and Megan, nice to have a great place to start with the new additions.

I just want to be ready to get out of here as soon as possible. The current owners are in Brazil, so it's a bit complicated. It is in Lake Orion/Orion Township. It's next to the elementary school and middle school and two parks. It might still be on Zillow. 2231 Silver Maple Orion Township Michigan. It's big enough and has what we want, so I don't think it will be a starter home, but time will tell. Very excited!

Wow, beautiful house, you and Megan should be very happy there! Congratulations! If I get back to Michigan again I will come visit!

Thanks! It’s a lot nicer than the first ones we looked at. You’re welcome to come anytime. The timing is working out great. Lease ends August 15. I imagine we can close before August 1. I want to start moving stuff as soon as possible as I’m not doing a big truck rental. Just a small one for the last of the big stuff.
