One more week!

Only one more week and I'll be in Big Ocala (or Slow-cala as it's also known; obviously these individuals haven't lived in Webster or Sumterville). I signed my lease today, I hope I like it there. It isn't that I'm concerned about my apartment complex or the area ... I just want to be happy. I want to have friends like I did in the military. I want people to hang out w/, have bar-b-q's, just have fun. I just want to be happy. I think I'll be in the middle of everything. I went out Saturday night and until then I hadn't realized how many people I already know. I think it will be good; if not I'll tough it out for a year (my least is for one year) & try somewhere else. I don't know exactly what is going to make me happy but does anyone? Getting on my own again after living w/ my parents for 2 years is a good start. I am excited!

I made my first big purchase today.

Yeah, I couldn't afford them so I got:

Not nearly a fun but I guess laundry isn't supposed to fun for poor people :)

So now after my first big purchase & my moms yard sale things are coming together. I have plates, a vacuum & casserole dishes. My next purchase will either be a t.v. or patio furniture; depending on which is the cheapest. I'm not concerned w/ living room furniture ... I'll spend more time on my screened in patio smoking than I will setting in a living room w/ no t.v. : ) only problem is that no one has patio furniture. I spent all day in Ocala today looking for a patio set. I went to Walmart, Target, Kmart, Hobby Lobby (picked up a HUGE mirror for 1/2 off) & Sears. Christmas decorations are taking the place of patio furniture ... I don't want a Christmas tree; I want something to set on outside! I wish I had been looking for a set a month ago; I would have got it for cheap! I guess I'll go online and see if Walmart has anything, if I have it shipped directly to the store it's free.

So, that's all for me. I hope you all are doing well.
