We have initially set the time frame for a mid-April move. The next step is to begin the job search and while we casually searched for openings in December, it is time to start looking in earnest. It is also time to create a basic time line:
January
Find and apply to jobs that fit our needs
February
Decide on moving arrangements (truck, pod, etc)
Arrange trip to Austin for interviews
March
Start the search for an apartment
Sell my vehicle
Finalize moving arrangements
Arrange trip to Austin for interviews/apartment hunting
April
Sign lease on an apartment
Move
While this is obviously a loose time line, I feel it is important to get something in place. It is a good starting point and will become more fleshed out as the details are worked out.
