It's awesome out today!!!! So cold and crisp and sunny and fallish. I went for a short walk this morning to wake myself up and fell in love with New England all over again. It even smells pretty. It rained in buckets this weekend though (especially Saturday!) and things always smell pretty after a rain.. except maybe dogs.

Speaking of weekends.. I had a really nice one for a change!. I almost forgot what it's like having someone spend more then a rushed 1.5 hours with me and seem to actually enjoy it.

So I'm drinking some awesome tea and goofing around with some wireframe stuff for some interview "homework" (weird story.. maybe another time) and listening to the wind outside my window. Tonight I go see a REALLY CUTE apartment for the second time with my stepdad so I can get another opinion.

It's SO ADORABLE. It's on the second floor though (the big drawback) but it's in an old farmhouse type house. All the rooms are painted a different gypsy color like maize, blue, sage, etc. The floors are old farmhouse type hardwood. The kitchen is adorable and a lot bigger then my walkin but I don't think I could fit a table in there.. which is fine. I cant' remember the last time myself or my daughter ate at the table. Plus she keeps saying she wants to move out after she graduates int he spring.. I hope she doesn't.. I don't want my baby to leave the nest But the apartment is adorable and I can even see myself happy in it alone if it came to that. I could hang herbs to dry in the kitchen and stuff. And cover the bathroom in candles and bliss out in the tub with yummy Lush bathbombs and good music and wine.

And rugs!!! I could eventually pottery barn it and get beautiful rugs. I always wanted hardwood floors. The layout is a little quirky. Like it's technically a 2 bedroom. But when you enter the apartment through the front door (UP THE WAY TOO TINY STAIRS.. WIERD) you come into a beautiful big room with 4 windows and a HUGE closet.. supposedly the living room. Then walk into another room.. which is supposedly the dining room.. you can take a right and go straight into the washroom and next to it is two fairly small rooms each done in a cute earthy color that are the "bedrooms". Or you can go straight off the dining room and hit the kitchen and the back entry which has side step stairs.

I think I'd turn the front room with 4 windows into my large bedroom which would mean guests and my daughter would need to go up the back entrance because I don't want them tramping through my bedroom. I dunno how that'd work but my mom saw it with me last week and seems to think it would. That leaves 1 bedroom for Cait and 1 for our computers. and the dining room could be the living room.. No kitchen table but like I said.. we never really use ours now. So I dunno.. The price is certainly right and I love the look of it.. seems cozy. But i couldn't really entertain much.. not that I do now anyway..

Okie I'm babbling!

I'm scared of the thought of moving. Packing up everything myself is simply overwhelming.. not to mention I really don't know who I'd get to help me move.. maybe my sister's boyfriend. But I'm sure I'd figure it out! It would be so awesome to be in a little gingerbread type new home with christmas decorations and such.

Also a job interview I went on last week looks promising so I'm trying to be cool about it and not get too emotionally invested in it because usually I'm crushed but keep your fringers crossed for me!
