A New Place to Live

I've got to be one of the luckiest people on the planet. I have been searching for a new place to live for a few weeks now only to find nothing. I really need to live somewhere closer to town and to work and classes.And, last weekend an affordable place is just thrown in my lap!

I was visiting with a friend who now lives out of town and it turns out her mom is seeking someone to rent a room in her house. This house is GORGEOUS. That's no exaggeration either. New hardwood floors, newly remodeled with new appliances. I will have my own bathroom too! Yay no sharing with boys!

And D (my friend's mom) is the nicest person I've met. Any mom that can raise a child that turns out as wonderfully as her daughter must be extraordinary. But, good parenting skills aside, D is like me in some ways--really neat and clean, organized, etc. And, she's just super-nice. She's always been so nice to me. Heh, the only thing she said was "you won't have that creepy guy over will you? Because I hated him." lol I let her know I escaped "creepy guy" many months ago and was never happier to be alone.

I'm planning to move stuff tonight after work. Who knows, maybe I can even sleep there tonight. And, speaking of sleeping--my grandmother got me a bed for FREE--a neighbor was remodeling their guest room and getting rid of the bed. It's hardly used, if kind of old. And, while I suppose that sounds really sad, I'm excited that it looks clean and I won't have to sleep on the floor. :) And, did I mention FREE?

I can't wait to buy curtains and such for my new room!
