Moving
As should be clear from my previous post, we are in Portland this week trying to be helpful. On Saturday, we head back to Seattle to try to finish up all of our packing.
Sometime before August begins, we will be out of that apartment and on our way to Manhattan. Currently, we don't have an address or a move-in date. Columbia provides guaranteed subsidized housing to anyone who is accepted to the Law School. Naturally, complications arose from my health-caused living space needs.
When we visited, we checked out some of the student apartments. They were small, but workable. Except, we said to each other, for the lack of storage space required for the dialysis machine and supplies. When we got home, we did some measuring, and discovered that we're using 80-90 square feet for all of my stuff. No wonder it feels crowded sometimes!
To make a long story short: we have been approved for "disability housing," but the approval process took an extra month. Sometime this week we should receive information about our new address, and then we can make more concrete plans and act upon them.
Yay!
