One more thing...

ladydraceOnce more for the gipper. I just typed out this entry, only to accidentally kill it. I can't even blame the internet or anything. It was my own fault. *sigh* Oh well. Take two.
I don't remember if I've talked about this before, but I kept up my apartment hunting after the divorce. I still want to move closer to my mom, both so she can help more with Pea and so that I can see her more. Plus, the only reason I stayed in this city was because B wouldn't move. I've been offered a few apartments in the past couple of years, but I've had to reject them all for being too far away from my mom. I need to be within biking distance at least, preferably closer.
And now I've been offered a promising one, available Sep. 1st. The timing could not possibly be worse.
Pea can still stay in the kindergarten, and I can apply for taxi service, so that's not an issue.
However, I'm torn. It's not a perfect place. It's at the absolute top end of what I can afford, it has no garden (which isn't a deal-breaker, but I had hoped) and there are no pets allowed, which would kill my dreams of a dog. But it's the first offer I've gotten which is actually close enough to my mom and I'm tempted. But ugh, to add moving chaos to my already frayed nerves during kindergarten start-up. It would be like inviting a hurricane into my head. *bites nails*
And even if I accept the offer, it doesn't mean I can expect it to be mine. There might still be others on the list before me.
What to do, what to do. Gnargh!
