I am tired, sore, and just exhausted.  I finally moved out of that ghetto ass apartment.  I really hated it there, it was the first time in my life I ever absolutely HATED where I was living.

My friend Leanne and her mom helped me pack and unpack.  It was so sweet.  Her mom even organized my kitchen for me.  It was just precious.  They even took me to Lowe's to help me buy a lawnmower.  Since I'm a single home owner again now, I'm gonna have to start doing all that stuff again. 

It's nice to have a place of my own again.  The last time I was a home owner was when I was married to Brian.  Makes me miss him sometimes.  But, then again, I've grown so much and come so far since we split.  I am so much more self-assured, independent, and strong.  Not that it's all roses now.  I mean, I am lonely and have serious trust issues that keep me from wanting to let someone into my life.  But, one step at a time.

I have been hating my apartment for several months.  But I hadn't wanted to move until I knew I could buy something instead of still renting.  And I didn't want to do that until I passed my Series 7, because if I didn't pass, I would have lost my job.  But now that I passed, I can keep my job and my future is stable.

I went to Chase Mortgage and got pre-approval for a mortgage.  And I set up an appointment with a Realtor in the area for Thursday!  I am happy.  I get to start looking for a place of my own, away from my neighbors who have parties until 3am like 5 nights per week.

Yay!  Finally feel like I am moving foward.
