Moving Day
Well, this should be interesting. After having trouble renting it, the landlord showed the apartment to a couple with a young girl, probably not much older than Sadie, and a day later came and took down the for rent sign. Right on schedule, it looks like the yard is full of vehicles.
Most of the people we saw them showing the place to were of the “you’re kidding” variety, but that last couple seemed perfect. Fingers are crossed.
Update:
Then again, one of the vehicles is an SUV, and the other one is a ladder-laden paint truck with a couple of painters sitting almost stock still, union or highway department worker-like, on the tailgate, looking off into the distance. I’m confuzzled. My guess is they are waiting for the arrival of stuff to help move, and are proverbially on their way to work otherwise. But who knows.
Laterer:
Weird. That amounted to absolutely nothing. All I can figure is maybe the dude moving in does painting, had just gotten the key, and was doing a walk around while his guys waited.
