If you read a few blogs down, you know Matt is leaving in a couple of weeks to go to school in Waco. So, technically, he's only an hour and a half away, but he will be living on his own in an apartment. He will be rooming with two guys he went to school with, Bryce & Fergie. So, this means we are setting up a whole new household for him.......towels, sheets, trash cans, toiletries, cleaning supplies, food and school supplies, too!!! We went to the joint base last weekend and bought him a laptop and printer (tax free!!!). I've gotten sheets, towels, laundry baskets, cleaning supplies, first aid kit and school stuff. I just keep adding a little each week. I think he will be moving on the 20th and Mike and I will make a trip down on the weekend to make sure he has everything he needs. I'll probably have to get his computer and printer set up to the Wi-Fi. Unfortunately, Matt is like his dad, electronically/technically challenged!!!
Now the plans are being made with what to do with the room. We have decided to move Lauren to Matt's room and Megan will be going to the computer/craft room and the computer/craft room will be moved to the girls room. There is a lot more room in there, so we will be getting a futon so Matt will have a place to sleep and this way all of our rooms will be on the same side of the house. Lauren is thrilled not to have to share a room anymore.
We need to strip the Bunnies having a tea party wall paper off the wall and we're going to texture the walls and paint the room, then we will be playing musical rooms!!! I also found this great wall unit at IKEA that we'll put in the craft room to hold all my supplies. It matches the computer desk, too!!
Ok, so the weird part is the fact that Matt is old enough to move away!! The hard part is getting him ready to move and him actually moving away!!!
Toodles,
Chelley
