Ahhhhhhhhhh


So, a while back I posted something about how the house wasn't working out and blah, blah, blah. It wasn't the house that was the problem, it was the person with whom we went into the deal with. He got a new boyfriend with a very serious criminal record...fuck it...who is a registered sex offender. He moved all of his shit in one day while we were at school. Nice, huh?

No way in hell were Josh and I going to live with this guy. On top of the very obvious BIG problem, he had all kinds of other baggage, was a total creep and has a poorly behaved dog that likes to drag trash all over my just-cleaned home. Oh, and dude is bat-shit crazy. You never knew when he was going to come at you out of the blue. Needless to say we told Jason he could keep the house, good luck affording the mortgage and bills and we got the hell out as fast as we could!

So! For right now, we are living in a spacious two-bedroom apartment and couldn't be happier (happier for now). We plan on buying a home in the next 12-18 months, but for now, the savings we're able to build by renting this cheap-o place will help lower the mortgage payment later! It's also pretty nice to just be able to come home from school and not have to mow the lawn, fix a leaky pipe or go under the house to figure out why something isn't turning on...lol. Cool thing is that we have permission to paint, so I don't have to feel like I'm in a mental ward for the next year (although sometimes I feel like maybe I should be).

We live about 50 feet from Starbucks and 12 blocks from Dutch Brothers, for any time we just forgot or don't have time to pull our own shots in the morning...lol.
