I'm moving to Oklahoma

Not so long ago I was known as your Hostess.  The young lady who blew into this grand city, for graduate school, and along the way made a host of friends and many, many memories.
Now, I prepare to leave what I come to think of as my other home - St. Louis.  I'll being moving to Oklahoma in January for an amazing job - a researcher at Oklahoma State University. Go Pokes!

But couldn't leave St Louis without one last dance.

I'll be having a Progressive Departing Party, dropping in a few area Holiday Festivities hoping to see as many folks as I can before I depart to the west.

Many people have asked if I need anything before departing (on January 3rd). And the answer is yes. Yes, I do. After graduation I downsized my life big time and I'll be starting over fresh in Oklahoma.

Some household items I could certainly use include
Iron and Ironing Board
Kitchen supplies - drinking glasses, storage ware, dish drying rack -- stuff like that.
Bathroom supplies - mainly cleaning items like a plunger, scrubber brush, sponges
Living Room - couch, ottoman. And if anyone knows where I can score a television (32-40" flat screen) for the low low, hit me up and an XBox or some other game component so I can download Netflix and the internet.  Cable company won't grift me. LOL

Bedroom & Linens - I have sheets and comforters, but my wish list does include a nice duvet for my full/queen size bed.

And just for reference, I have a Housewarming Wish List
Thank you so much for the love, fun, and laughter while I was in St Louis.

I hope I see you out and about!
Your hostesss,
