Cleveland Rocks!

So um... we're moving to Cleveland. Basically, Dan had to move on from the company he was working for in Bryan. Nine days later, he got a job offer at a company in Bedford Heights, Ohio, which is a suburb of Cleveland.  Defiance is about 3 hours from there, so we're moving. YAY! .... sort of.

I'm getting excited for the whole, finding a new house/daycare/starting a new job thing, but I also hate all of that stuff. Packing up all of our crap again may put me over the edge, into crazy-town. And I've talked to so many daycare centers, I had to make a spreadsheet to keep them all figured out.

We keep finding houses/condos via Craigslist. Some of them have been beautiful, some have been dumps. Some have been $1100/month, super old, "meh" houses in beautiful neighborhoods. Some have been 2-bedroom townhomes with a NO CATS policy. Some have been gorgeous 3-bedroom townhomes with a cats-are-welcome policy, finished basement, pool on the premises, posted on a Friday morning, discovered Friday night, sniped out from under us Saturday morning. But I'm not bitter.  We're just so used to having no problem getting into a place we want because we have awesome credit and live in tiny towns where practically no one rents but us.

As of 11:20am, there have been 214 rental apartments or houses posted to the Cleveland Craigslist page today. That's kind of a lot. Hopefully we can find something soon and get this show on the road.
