| Home Sweet Home! |
My mom is a priest and has recently accepted a call to a new parish back in Pennsylvania. With the church comes a rectory - a house owned by the church in which the priest resides while working for that church (usually). That is our current set-up in Maryland actually. Five years ago (during my senior year of high school) my Mom took a call and moved from Pennsylvania to Maryland to her current parish. Dad and I followed once I finished high school. Very recently, we finally sold our house in PA. Of course now we are moving back to the same county haha. It's funny how life works sometimes. I've really loved my time in Maryland. We'll see what this new chapter in Pennsylvania brings.
I'll be living with my parents in their new house for the rest of the summer before heading off to Richmond. The move sort of threw a wrench into any plans I'd had for summer employment. It's difficult to tell a potential Maryland employer they can only have me until June. Alternatively, it's hard to find work in a different state and to tell them they can't have you until mid-summer. Ultimately, I am actually super pleased the summer worked out this way. I usually rush to fill all my free time with something or other. Now I fully intend to relax and enjoy every bit of my summer (after we've finished moving, of course. Those boxes aren't going to unpack themselves!)
Are you moving this summer, too?
Pro tip: Plan with paper!
This is a system my parents swear by. Take measurements of your new place and all of your current furniture you wish to move. Translate those measurements into scale drawings. Have all the fun of decorating fend shui-ing without the back pain!

| Mock up of my new room. Actual pictures coming *fingers crossed* next week. |
The movers come on Wednesday. For now we're just moving around paper furniture.
Stay tuned for all the moving fun!
