The Move

Yesterday we made the move to Seneca. We are currently staying with my parents temporarily while we look for a house to buy. We kept our apartment in Overland Park so that we could leave a lot of our furniture and belongings there and hopefully not have to move them twice. Brett starts his job on Tuesday and I am now working remotely (still part time). The move went pretty smoothly except for the crazy deer that was out running across the highway at 4:30 in the afternoon on a 100 degree day...



Thankfully, it was just me (and a ton of our stuff) in the car and I wasn't hurt. The officer who came by about a minute after it happened said I was lucky and that my seatbelt saved my head from bashing into the windshield (airbags didn't deploy since the hit was above the bumper). I was glad that I didn't swerve into oncoming traffic.

It was a little of a pain though because there was glass all over everything in the front seat (myself included - but I wasn't cut). So we still need to sort through that stuff. It also took us another trip to the body shop to move our stuff out of our packed full car. We will be short a car until it's fixed but it isn't a big deal since I'm working remotely now. We could get a rental but would have to drive to Manhattan to get it and drop it back off so we're still debating. All in all, we're just thankful it wasn't any worse and that we were so close to Seneca.
