Today's apartment search was incredibly exhausting. We saw 16 apartments. The apartment I liked best my husband did not like the neighborhood. Cherry and Hill. I liked the street space and that we had parking spaces and all utilities paid, which equals slightly less than what we pay now for all our utilities and rent. There were friendly neighbors, it wasn't condensed, and we even had a cute little dirt space for gardening downstairs or even a potential potty spot for the dog, but we're near a park, so I would prefer a little garden. Also, Triscuit wouldn't cost a monthly fee, just a deposit we would get back at the end granted we left the carpet in good condition. The place we are at now charges $25/month on top of a non-refundable deposit of $325 in the beginning. Every other place we looked there were additional fees for parking, or no dogs allowed, or crowding, etc. While it was not the best in neighborhoods, it is certainly nothing I am scared of, or felt uncomfortable with, and certainly a lot better than where we live now! He's so stubborn when he has something in his head.

I am not looking forward to moving. I definitely want the location change, but don't want to deal with the hassle of it all.

I finally found the camera's battery charger. It was where it SHOULD be, but I overlooked it so many times because it looks like all the other wires and devices my husband has plugged into the computer.

I lost weight, for which I am glad because I was packing it on rather quickly. The walks are helping a lot, and my eating habits are so much better than before. I went through a horrible stage of craving the grossest things in the beginning of the second trimester. I'm in the third trimester. Three more months. I know I am going to explode and that this is nothing. The baby is about 2.5 lbs right now. It is hard to imagine a whole baby in there, that, if born today, has a good chance of survival.

We're going to be selling lots of our belongings for dirt cheap. Lots of movies, random things, our coffee table, our loveseat, our lamp, my textbooks, books, and that which we cannot sell we're donating off. We have an extra spice rack that two people claimed at one point, but they never take the darn thing. I need to get rid of paperwork before we move, so we have less to move. Clothing I will probably just donate. I cannot wait to get rid of stuff! I want to sell at least one of the computers, and get rid of this ridiculous abundance of writing utensils.

I am glad I had today off. I wish I had every Wednesday off to break up the week of work.

I'm going to start doing odd jobs for people...we're getting creative.
