Stuff about me!

Well, I haven't had time or energy to post in over two weeks. Much has happened in my personal life. I guess I need to continue where I left off from my last posting. Anyway after returning home from Toronto on June 26 I discovered more mold and wet smells in my apartment. Now this had happened a few weeks earlier that caused me to move out of my room so that it could be repainted and get new carpeting. But this new discovery was the straw that broke the camel's back! Of course this didn't leave me much time to figure out what my living arrangements would be. Should I stick with having a roommate, ask Darcy about finding a place together, go solo instead? Then I had to decide whether to stick with the same landlord or find a new apartment. Finally decided to stay with my current landlord as I liked the complex (there are four in total) and the area (south Hollywood). Plus a two bedroom, two bathroom unit had just come available. So I moved my stuff into the building next to my old one. A short move distance wise but it still was difficult to do with the bloody humidity! Don't move to South Florida and if you do don't move in summer!! I moved everything by hand - pointless to rent a U-Haul. Friends helped me with the couch.

But even worse news when I got back from Toronto was that my grandfather had passed away on June 25. He was in bad shape the last few years. He had been in the hospital briefly and then moved to a nursing home. So I decided to change my plane ticket and fly up early to begin the arduous task of cleaning out my grandparent's house. I'm very tired now and need to go to Darcy's to RELAX this weekend -something that I haven't done in a long time. More stories to come later...
