The Apartment is Ours

Shannon had his second day of work today! On the way home yesterday, the heater in the car quit working. So this morning, Shannon put anti-freeze in the car and it worked fine. We’ll need to get our car checked out once we move in to our apartment.

Shannon dropped off the deposit for our apartment today! They gave him the papers with all the information regarding utilities, our new address, phone numbers, etc. I am so excited and can’t wait to move in. With the papers in my hands, its starting to feel real about moving again and having our own place. We want to move in ASAP but we want to be sure we have enough money to be able to pay for everything.

What’s funny is that the number 13 keeps coming back into our lives. First, Kyle was born on 1/3, he was born in room 13 at the hospital. Our old address had the number 13 in it. Now our new address has 13 in it--twice!

Also, the apartment is only 7 minutes away from Shannon’s new job! Plus Walmart is not too far either.

Shannon had a little more computer training to do today. He said it’s very laid back too. There isn’t much hustle and bustle unless they have a lot of guests coming and going. He had a change to talk with his manager and she is really laid back and open to giving him a weekend off to move. The work schedule also sounds open, which is good. I would prefer if Shannon had week days off, which is normal in the hospitality industry!
