Renters and Moving

Our lives have been incredibly busy lately, but we've been enjoying our last days here in North Carolina. At the beginning of May we decided that since our house hadn't sold we would try to rent it so that we wouldn't be paying rent and a mortgage next year. About a week ago we were headed out for a walk and saw a car sitting in front of our house. The couple inside got out, and were interested in renting the house. They were planning on coming back later in the week to see the inside, but we went ahead and invited them in and gave them a tour. After an hour of conversation, they were convinced and the next day we found out they wanted to rent it! They will be renting it for 2 years, but the only problem is they are moving in June 16th and our condo won't be ready until June 28th! Thankfully we have wonderful friends who have offered their homes to us, we just have to figure out what to do with all of our stuff in the meantime. Now we have 2 weeks to figure out movers, storage units, and temporary housing, and to pack all our stuff! I can't believe our time here is coming to an end, and I know the next few weeks will be filled with ups and downs and lots of sadness and excitement. Here's to hoping we can keep it all together!
