Moving

Well, as you probably know, we have been very anxious to get out of this hole that some might call a house. Leaks, faulty wiring, broken appliances, a landlord who never fixes anything, it's all had us really wishing we could just find a new place and move. The only thing that has kept us from looking for a place is that Cingular Wireless bought out AT&T last year and we were just waiting until the reorganization completed so we knew whether Dave would be relocated or whether he even still has a job after it's completed. That still has not happened yet. It's still up in the air.

However, our landlord has decided to renovate this house and sell it or something, so he gave us a 30-day notice to vacate. What a jerk, gosh I cannot stand him. Anyway, we are having to move very soon. We have been looking for the last couple of days, and I have looked at three houses for rent so far. All of them are smaller than this one, and about the same in age I'd guess (built-in painted-white cabinetry must have been all the rage back in the day). I just hope we can stay in the same area and something works out soon so we can just put this place behind us. Although I really feel like this is "home," I think ultimately we'll be happier & better off living in a different house, no matter how much smaller.
