I try not to be sad when Kris goes back to Arizona, but it never works. This time is a little different. I am sad, but there's optimism this time. Instead of waiting until next year to leave I have decided to move in with Kris this September. I think the plan is to buy a foreclosed house in Tucson and take a leave the first few months to get adjusted. The only real problem right now is that there is no Paul Mitchell in Tucson (I totally thought there was) so I'm going to have to see if I can get my hours transferred to another school. Then I have to see if that school offers night classes, but most beauty schools do. Assuming my schedule stays the same, I will only be in school for four days a weeks and at nights, so I will be able to work anytime during the day on weekdays and whenever on the weekends, although I would like very much to avoid that. Anyway, most houses have more than one bedroom so I would rent the extra out to someone and put their rent money toward the loan we would need to take out to buy the house in the first place. Also, Kris and I would both qualify for food stamps (he can already get around $175 a month) so groceries would be looking good. The only think I would need a significant amount of money for would be loans, gas, and electric bills, water bills, etc. I'm really excited for this change.
