Come hell or high water....
I'm moving to Buffalo (preferably within walking distance of Elmwood/Allen) in January.
Unless some better offer comes along.
But that's what the next several months will be about... paying off my credit card debt & then saving for first/last month's rent & security deposit.
It's not where I see myself, but it's a start. I've always loved that part of Buffalo and I was happiest when I was there.
Positivity! Hopefully I stick with it.
Step #1 finding a part-time job to supplement the money I'm already earning. I'm hoping to find something that pays $10+ an hour, or under the table... something along those lines. Considering seeing if my friends who run a dough factory in town can get me a job there. But I'm leery of working for good friends, plus I don't exactly have the physical strength to lift 50lb bags of flour and other product. Hopefully I can find something close to home that isn't going to eat my soul. Then again, I should just suck it up until January. I'm going to complete my application for the collections job on Main in Hamburg tonight. I'm a bit leery of that as well, because all the things I've googled about the company make me think they are extremely sketchy in their practices, plus I'm not sure I can do collections effectively. But it does sound nice... Mon-Fri, Health Care, Gym Membership, and the ability to make $18 an hour in a year. Worth a shot, I guess... if I get it and I hate it.. then I quit. No big deal.
Okay, time to get some food in my system then out for a nice walk or bike ride. It's beautiful out, but so freakin hot! Which is fine, because hey.. I wanted this weather. I just got in from laying in the sun for an hour... hopefully I didn't burn too much. I could use some color!
Happy (early) Memorial Day!!
