Michigan’s certainly putting up a fight tonight with an impressive thunderstorm. Sorry, though, Michigan… it’s not going to be enough to keep us here. 😉

Nick and I did some more packing tonight and we disassembled the dining table. Our apartment’s starting to look bare and weird now, in spite of having our things strewn all about it.

We finalized moving arrangements tonight. My grandma is going to fly out and meet us in Chicago on Saturday, July 2, to help us with the drive (since we have to drive both cars now). In the 3 times Nick and I have done the Detroit-Seattle drive, we’ve made the trip in 3 days/2 nights. This time, I’m guessing we’ll do it in 4 days/3 nights. We’ll see, though.

It feels good to have the big aspects of this move figured out now. 🙂

What are our next steps? We’re going to pick up a few special moving boxes for the tv, dishes, glasses, etc. tomorrow or Thursday. Our cars are going to get check-ups at the car doctors on Friday to make sure they’re fit for the trip. Other than that, we pretty much only have packing left. We sure got a lot accomplished in the last week!
