1. the house appraisal for X's refi happened and everything went as we hoped: it's appraised for $320k which will allow X to refinance so that he can afford the payments. Closing will be around 9/30 (and I'll finally get my check!) 2. I was just approved to rent a 1 bed apartment in the same town for $1075/mo (most 1 beds in our town run between $1200-1300/month). It's a managed complex, seems safe enough, and it's close to DS's school and the house. We'll have to share a bedroom for a while, but I think I'll get a futon and sleep in the living room at some point. Other than that it's a decently spacious apartment - enough room for him to play with his toys, for us to eat at a kitchen table, and to not be on top of each other all the time. It will be ready 9/18 - I can't wait!!!! 3. once I'm all settled, I'll look into taking a math class in the spring. If I can get 2-3 classes in, then I think the application/school process will be easier for me as I'll be familiar with taking classes again. It's all happening, slowly but surely.  |

No, we don't walk away. But when we're holding on to something precious, we run.

1. Ashley Madison is for married people looking for a discrete hook-up. Since I'm single, what's the point? 2. Do I look like I have Ashley Madison money? |

DH died 5+ years ago - other than a brief 6 months of dating I can sadly report I have both Zib and MJ beaten on the time without Thai food. I shall now go weep in the corner of my office. Thanks for the bump to my day ladies!
