Lease in my hand!

i found a place to live!!!

my new place, starting july 1, is in hayes valley/alamo square. it's a cute, small studio. hardwood floors, 3rd floor. big windows. building was built in the 1920s. 10 foot high ceilings. amazing view of the city from the roof.

i have no idea how it's all going to come together... how am i going to go from living in houses/large spaces to a 10ft x 15 ft space?!? i'm hoping to loft my bed, which will help. some sort of rack for my bikes. there's a giant closet, but i still need to downsize my clothes & shoes. *sigh*

as a birthday present to me, g$ organized/handled getting my bed out of my old apartment and put it in my storage unit. i haven't been back to the storage unit, or even really given it any thought. i was pretty happy ignoring anything having to do with my old apartment. i don't even know if i really thanked the friends that worked with g$. i just didn't want to deal.
...
well, now i'm going to have to go back there & get my stuff out... get a truck, etc. wow.

and how does one move when the entrance to your building is on a MAIN street?!? gonna be interesting. if you're in the area on july 1 or 7/8 and want to help out... you know you're welcome to join in the fun!

overall though, i am super excited about my new place. happy to have a space that is all my own. happy that it's centrally located, totally "city" and fits what i had envisioned.

also totally scared!!!
