Kris and I have a house!
Today I filled out the application to reserve a house for Kris and I. I have to be out of my apartment by the 31st of July and I was in a time crunch to find a house. I had been waiting and waiting for this duplex behind Rosa's Pizza but the landlord was starting to get iffy and couldn't give me a for sure date of when I could move in, so today I decided to drive around Cheney and call any for rent sign I saw outside of a house. Whenever I call a house, the first question I ask the landlord is if they will allow me to have a 10 pound dog. And every house says no. HOW FRUSTRATING! My dog is 2 years old and
is completely house broken. Trust me, I do not allow any bad behavior from her. I raised her as if she was a human child, no shitty behavior and she gets in trouble when she doesn't follow the rules. This isn't Pricilla's world where she can act however she pleases, so it is frustrating that landlords won't even give it a try. I'm even willing to pay a 300-400 dollar pet deposit so I can have her. There is no way she will go home to live with my mom (even though my mom has said she could). I couldn't part with her, she's the best companion any one could ask for. Finally, after driving around for 35 minutes, I called the last for rent sign I could see, and thankfully he said if I paid a 350 pet deposit I could have Pricilla. So he went on to tell me the details, 2 bedroom 1 bath, a washer and a dryer for only 625 a month. That's a steal because I have been having a terrible time finding anything to live in. So today at 3:30 he showed me the inside and after looking around for 5 minutes, I said I would take it. I think it's going to be perfect for Kris, Pricilla, and I. I called Kris beforehand to give him the heads up on the situation because he already knew what house I was talking about, but I wanted to clear it with him first. He told me that if the inside was nice that we should get it. And it was nice! The living room was huge and what I loved, was it was clean! It had been well maintained and we even have a little balcony to sit outside on :) The bonus, was that the landlord was going to put in a washer and a dryer for us! For the last year, I have been living without my own washer/dryer and talk about hell! I hate it. There is a community laundry room at my apartment but it costs me 5 dollars to wash and dry 3 loads of laundry! So, I was making the w/d a first priority. There is no dishwasher, but that is okay with me as long as I can wash my clothes. I am really excited that Kris and I will have our own place instead of him living with me in my 1 bedroom apartment for the last 5 months. Pricilla will love all the room too. She likes to get crazy and run around in circles for no reason. It's cute to watch actually :) On August 1, we get to move in and start this exciting adventure!
