apartment hunt is over

so, we've found an apartment. it's right next to downtown atlantic avenue. it'll take me 5 minutes to walk to work. great, right? well, i'll get this little annoyance out of the way...  the "winner" apartment we first saw was sadly taken away from us. we went and saw it on tuesday and really wanted it, but before we were going to say yes we needed to look at some others. we saw about 5 places and none of them were what we wanted. on friday we had planned to go see the "winner" but found out that someone had jumped on it before we could tell the landlord we wanted it. sucked, man! we told the landlord to keep us updated before she handed it over to a realtor. well, whatever. that's done and over with. there was another apartment in the same complex that we liked and grabbed up right away so we wouldn't lose out. so now it's ours. we got the keys today. we started moving some stuff in and i'm getting really excited. it's an old old old place. a/c window units, wood floors, wood paneled walls, everythings painted white... the 2nd bedroom is super small(that will become "that" room...) and a decent sized master bedroom. the kitchen is small, but do-able. i can't wait to decorate and get the bed together... hopefully by wednesday we'll be sleeping there! oh and by the way- the greatest part about the place is our friends catie and erick(who told us about the apartment) are moving in shortly and we'll have them as neighbors! i can't wait.

work is going well. sometimes busy. saturday i had 4 clients... a nice 200 dollar day. it felt awesome to make some money and to make people feel awesome. my whole body ached the next day, though. as if i worked out! i'm not quite used to it yet, but hopefully i'll ease into it and my hands won't go back to the way they used to be.

it's been 3 weeks since we've cooked. it doesn't feel good, but we have had no desire to bother. i can't wait to get all unpacked and have our space and kitchen to cook and make comfy.  :)

anyway, that's my update for now. my computer is fixed now and i'm glad it charges again. whew.

time to settle in to this florida life[again].
