Ya know, 6:00 AM phone calls from Afghanistan are the best wake up calls, EVER! After almost a month and a half of not hearing his sweet voice, he called me! He was finally able to get the phone system up and working. It made my entire day starting out hearing from him. I was smiling the entire time. It was so nice to hear his voice. Just relaxed me and made everything so much better. I love this man so much!
So I called up Picerne again and the lady was busy so I left a message. I jumped in the shower and she called me back! WE HAVE HOUSING! I get the keys June 21st! I am so insanely excited. She was telling me the different neighborhoods that have things available, and she was talking about this apartment building and she asked if I would prefer upstairs or downstairs.. and I told her with the dogs, downstairs would be easier for them and she was like, "oh that is right, you have two dogs! well an apartment just isn't going to work.. you're going to want a yard!" And I was like, "aw, well that's nice but I usually just walk them several times a day so its no big deal anyway", and she says, "well sometimes it's just easier to throw them in the yard and get it over with!" I was like, "SWEET!" So she continues looking and she says she is going to put me in a 3 bedroom townhome on the historic main post. THREE BEDROOMS! OMG! I couldn't believe it! She said the third room is pretty small, it would make a perfect nursery or office area. Works for us! Plus we have our own basement, and a fenced in backyard that is ours! It is 2 stories as well. Bottom floor has a patio, huge kitchen, dining room, living room, then upstairs is the 3 bedrooms and the bathroom. It's 1100 square feet.That is so big for us! I am just so happy and so excited. I can't wait to talk to Randy about it. I sent him an email but I can't wait to hear what he thinks. He's going to be thrilled. I can't wait for him to come home to our new home! I haven't moved in yet nor am I back in Kansas yet either but I'm already checking out craigslist for furniture! I'm going to need some couches and a kitchen table, and a washer and dryer because there are hookups! There is also a dishwasher! I'm going to have a dishwasher! Ahhh! I am so excited I am ready to move in right now! Now my only little issue is that we're going to have to come up with 641$ on the 21st. Which I think we can do just fine, it's just going to leave us a little short. So I cannot spend anymore money on anything except to get me home and the little necessities. I think we'll be alright though.
Also I am leaving on Sunday to head back to Kansas. Ready to go home but not quite ready to make that long drive back there. Ugh! At least my puppies are good and used to being in the car. Ready to go home though.
I have a bit of a stomach ache and I want to go to sleep but I really want Randy to come online so I can talk to him about all this awesome housing stuff! Can't wait to hear what he thinks! :P
