Shipping up to Boston

So, its truly official...I'm moving to Boston. I will be working as a contract specialist at a small firm outside of Boston. I've konwn about this firm for a few years now and always hoped they would have an opening and that I could apply for it and get it...and guess what? They did and I did!!! I gave my notice at work, 4 weeks, and will finish up here on June 18th. My first day at my new job is June 28th. I've signed my offer letter, they have countersigned it.

I have found a place this past weekend. I'm just waiting to finalize the lease with the landlord, but I gave him a security deposit, so its mine. I've also informed my current landlord that I will be moving out by June 30th. I'm going to be living in a small one bedroom in West Newton. Its one of 3 units in a house and the landlord lives there with his family. They are very pet friendly and the entire apartment was renovated 2 years ago. Its smaller than what I am used to, so it will be a challenge to down size stuff, but it will be good to get rid of somethings. The neighborhood is amazing. I can walk to resturants, movie theater, food shopping (they actually have a Trader Joe's and a Whole Foods), and take Lupe for walks in a nice neighborhood.

I can't believe that after almost 16 years I'm moving back to Boston! Someone pinch me!!!
