Ohhhh yea!!!!

Ohhhh yea!!!! I did it ... I got a BITCHEN apartment ... ohhh man I am so excited ... and I did on my own ... well not on my own ... I couldn't have done it without the help of many people ... mainly Kris and Chevy ... but this is the first apartment I have ever gotten where my parents didn't help me with the move in cost ... the deposits and stuff ... cause I never had enough money at one time to do it on my own ... but today I found the coolest place ... yesterday I look at a place that I thought about going back to today ... but I just really didn't like it ... ya know I didn't come home all excited after seeing the place ... and today I couldn't wait for Kris to get home and come back over there with me ...  so we did ... as soon as she got home and she loved it just as much as I do ... I can hardly wait to move in ... pending I pass the credit check ... {fingers crossed} hahahaaa ... I mean I did fine at my last place ... but I have since broken my leg ... wracked up huge medical bills that I am still paying off ... so we will see ...  anyway the place is so perfect ... one bedroom ... huge living room/dining area that I can use all as a living room ... and a walk in closet that is bigger than some rooms I have had ... it just rocks ... a balcony off the bedroom ... huge kitchen ... security system ... and a washer and dryer ... and came in under my proposed budget ... its about 10 minutes away from Kris' and maybe 15 from work ... everything is really close ... and the neighborhood around it is beautiful ... and it will all be mine in 9 days ... woooohoooo ... its time to start thrift shopping and find funky furniture that I can fix up ... my favorite "Alice in Wonderland" looking table was 5 bucks at good-will ... maybe I will get even luckier in Vegas with some groovier stuff!! ... ohhh I love moving into a new place ... and I get it the week Kris and Chevy are going to Cali ... so I am going to try and have everything but my big furniture moved in during that week they are gone ... and then just get Chevy and his friend Tim help me ... and I figure if there is anything I want to paint ... I can do it that week they are gone when Kris' car won't be in the garage ... so stuff is pretty groovy ...  work is hectic ... there is always something I need to be doing ... it makes it really hard to relax at all ... cause if I am at home I feel like I need to be working ... sometimes I feel like I can't even get to writing in my journal cause it is taking time away from working ... and I know it won't always be like this with work so I should put in everything I have now when it really really counts ... at least I get to work at home a bunch ... which I love ...  well I got a bit of work done before I finished this ... just in case I thought of anything else I wanted to write ... but alas I didn't ... so I will post this ... work and bit and head to bed ... I know I will have sweet dreams tonight ...  Oh wow I was getting ready to post this when I realized something ... I am getting my new apartment on the 3rd ... three is definitely my number ... all groovy stuff seems to happen on the 3rd ... right on!!
