OMG!! We are moving!!!

[sh10]

DH got the job offer today!!! That means we will be back in Michigan for good in less than three weeks. OMG, I'm freaking out. Moving 517 miles in less than three weeks. I need a paper bag to breathe into. This is good, we will be 1 hour from my ILs, 3 from my parents, which is perfect for us. 

But we have to sell our house. Fingers crossed/prayers/whatever you do that it sells soon. 

Michigan ladies, please identify yourselves. I want to GTG soon!!! We will be moving to the metro Detroit area.

[drloretta]

Oh, GL! You can do it!

[timorousbeastie]

Yay, welcome back to MI! We'll definitely have to set up a GTG when you're back!

I'm in the metro Detroit area for the next few months! Wanna buy my house?

[AlpineSlide]

I don't know what's east vs. west, but based on my map review, west and maybe more north than the traditional metro. I'll PM you, because I have lots of questions for those that know the area.

Congrats!!! It will all work out and be ok.

We plan to rent for a while and then hopefully build. But if you need a renter, let me know!

HIII! Metro Detroit checking in. I currently live right by DTW, hoping to move further north in the next 2-3 years. Welcome!!!!

Feel free to PM me about stuff in the area

[zarapipe]

GL! It will suck getting there but it will be over before you know it!

[timorousbeastie]

Chiming in to say you can PM me, too. I'm northeast, but looking to move more northwest, so I might be helpful with that area.

Have you considered hiring someone to help stage your house?

We rearranged a lot of the furniture based on the realtor's suggestion and dropped the price and she relisted it. No showings since we did either of those things, but based on prior feedback, rearranging the furniture should help. Once we are out, we might consider staging it.

[yellowbrkrd]

Woohoo! I'm in the Grand Rapids area.

[humpforfree]

Nooooooooooo!
(Gtg soon? Packing break?)

I know, I was hoping to squeeze in one more aquarium visit. Think you'll be up to taking two kids downtown by yourself in the next week? That's a joke, maybe we can visit you on our way there.

Detroit city checking in! Hope your move goes well. Let's do a GTG!

[Deleted]

Michigander here!

[winemaker06]

Yikes! Congrats!
The move will be over before you know it. We'll miss you here!

I remember when we started moving the first large load of boxes in June, I thought there was no way I was going to survive the insanity. And then all of a sudden it's all over and we're settled.
Hopefully it works out great and you're able to hire out most of the packing and moving.
