Homeward Bound!

I got my apartment! I went down to the leasing office at Beneva Place yesterday and picked one out. It's a very nice place too! The girls in the office showed me around, I looked at two different units, they ran my credit and that was that. I move in next Wednesday! I was actually a little surprised that my credit was good enough to get the place. At my last two apartments, I had to have a co-signer on both of them. Here, they ran my credit, and thirty seconds later told me I was good to go.

This is all such a relief. I've got a good job and my own place, so this whole exodus of mine can finally stop feeling like vacation, and more like home. I can get some sense of normalcy returning to my life. Now I just need to get some furniture...

I'll post some pictures of the grounds of the complex after I move in next week. It has so beautiful in there. There's tree everywhere around the buildings, so it has a nice woodsy feel to it. Right in the middle of the complex is a lake with a fountain in the middle of it. It's just a nice, quiet, secluded, homey feeling place. I can't wait to move in!

Anywho, that's pretty much all that's up with me this last week. I've been fighting off a cold since last Saturday, so I haven't been up to much outside of work. Oh yeah! Capital One had deposited money from my bank account a couple weeks ago for the last payment on my car. Well, they did the same withdrawal twice, but they never posted the second one on any account. They had no record of the check being deposited, so I had to fax them a copy of the cleared check so that I could get my money back! Well, they called me yesterday afternoon and told me that they put a check in the mail. So not only am I debt free, I have people owing me money! It's great!

Well, Aunt Anne and Grandma are going to look at a place this morning. I'm at work, otherwise I'd be there, but hopefully it'll be nice. The thing is, if God want's you guys in Florida, then he'll provide a place for you. If not, then you won't find anything. Case in point, He'll put you where he wants you. ;-)

Uncle K and I are so proud of you, Mike. We are happy everything is working out so well. God is good, isn't He? Sorry we will miss you when you come back, we'll be in California. Drive safe with your mom back to Florida. We love you.
