Moving Stinks

I spent all last weekend packing up boxes and moving furniture out of my apartment in Ames and into a storage unit for the interval between moving out of this apartment and getting into the one I'm living in on campus this fall. As much as I love the fact that I'll be down to only paying one rent each month, it's still tough to drive the 3 hours to Ames, pack and move all weekend, then drive the 3 hours back. All this, while knowing I still have to go back one more time to clean it up. It's a mess, that's for sure. Furniture that hadn't been moved in forever and a day left fuzz balls on the floor. You can see where my computer was based on the mess on the wall where the fan blew dust. It'll take some time, but it'll be good to get out. I'll go back next weekend to do the cleaning and check out. Hopefully that means I'll be getting my deposit back in full and I'll be able to put it toward my savings account.

  1. take a magic sponge for the walls. I was surprised how well it cleaned computer junk off.

  2. I <3 magic erasers!! They're the best thing ever. I'm hoping the computer mess is just a wipe-able mess, I just haven't even tried.
