I did it! I signed my first lease all by myself. I got my keys and inspected my new apartment. Let me just say, it is actually nicer than the one I’ve been in. The lay out is pretty much the same, and it’s even on the same side of the building; therefore, I don’t have to do the whole living in a reverse world like I had to do switching apartments in college. Anywhoo- it’s very clean, cleaner than this one was when I moved in, and the carpet is brand new as well as the appliances. That puts a lot of pressure on me, but I’m a pretty clean person, and I can take care of it. My sliding glass door actually opens to a cemented patio unlike the one in this apartment, and…I can pull my car up on the grass right behind my apartment. Now, I won’t be parking there, but it’s great for unloading and loading lots of things. The only thing I do not like about this apartment is that it does not have the built-in shelving in the wall like my old one. I really enjoyed that shelving. Plus, I don’t have a bay window this time, something I loved in the old apt. The closet is still walkin. It’s slightly smaller, but longer. (if that makes sense). I all ready bought closet bars and installed them so that I can still have two wracks of clothes. Instead of them being on opposite sides, they are just on top of one another. I made 5 trips full in my car and managed to bring everything over except large items that can’t fit in my car and really heavy tubs of stuff. I don’t know that I will unpack all my stuff. I can’t decide. Like I said, I have less shelving, and I don’t want to put up shelves. I think that is tacky actually. I have two bookcases now because Dannae left me hers. I’ll definitely put that to use. My color scheme in the den is black, winter white, and deep pink ;). It’s very pretty. My room and bathroom will stay the same.
Ok, so I don’t know if that bored you or not. I had a lot of fun moving stuff, but it tired me out. I mean…loading the stuff from my old apt to my car was the hard part. Tonight I’m gonna get everything organized to go into the truck. The movers come on Saturday, but I’ll be at the mission most of tomorrow. I’m excited about my window treatments. I looked at some today but didnt make any decisions; i want to take my time.
Tonight I’m gonna proof a paper and watch the MTV music awards. I have missed Titus’ call 3 nights in a row now because I haven’t been able to stay up. he’s been out of town and his work schedule is wack. So…we have a phone time scheduled for early tomorrow morning. I can do mornings.
I’ve been praying a lot about my time with Kim lately. I want Jesus to feed her, and I am so unworthy of a vessel. Pray for our meeting tomorrow. I don’t know when exactly it will be. I’m heading to the mission I guess around 1 or something.
OH…FYI- and most importantly. My eye is all swelled up. I feel like Whitney. I don’t knwo what’s wrong. It’s like a sty but its bigger. AND…I have more bites on my hurt leg that are really infected again. My leg is once again swollen. This is the third round of bites. I think that leg is just kinda out of commission and so it is reacting to even normal mosquito bites in abnormal ways. I pray that these bites will heal. I’m tired of being physically ill. I know my injuries are not nearly as bad as some people with chronic illness, but it gives me a feel into the lives of people who suffer with chronic disorders. I am happy to be able to empathize. This summer has taught me a lot about empathizing with others.
Ok, that’s all…over and out like a pink trout!

p.s. last night I watched Friends with Money. It was interesting. I didn’t mind it, but I wouldn’t reccomend it to everyone.
