February where have you gone???

I started taking care of this little guy on the 6th of the month and my world has changed !!!  He is a really good baby..and I love having him here.  My days are long and active..the first week I discovered muscles I haven't used in a while.. Cooper is a happy giggle filled guy..active and silly.

Dan has been working away from here..doing a remodel of a condo for a woman in Agawam..  So it has just been me and Coop.  I have been looking for apartments but geez Louise everything is so expensive ..and the ones we have seen are not exactly home like  one was way out in the hills on a dirt road..the apartment was OK I could have done it BUT you had to share the kitchen in the main house..NO WAY could I do that.. On top of that they wanted $500 a month plus utilities and you had to take care of the wood furnace.. The owners were not sure who would be living in the main house..Way too iffy.  It was funny though because the owners actually have a place on PEI just up the road from us.. J J if you read this..they are the people who own the YURT at South-lake..the one you see from the road.  Too funny huh.. Nice people but the rent was just not right for me.

..  I will keep looking. Next week I am going to apply for two units in "senior communities"  one is privately owned the other run by the town.  They will be much less expensive.  Now the decision.. do we pay rent for something when we are not there??  Or do we continue to live like gypsies for a few more years.  I am leaning toward the later.  We can always find something..in October when we come back..It might mean a few days in a motel or with friends..but there are always going to be apartments around. If we find something that is perfect..or if we find something that is real cheap then we would go for it, but I hate the idea of paying 6 or 7 hundred dollars a month when we are not even using the space..

Cooper is asleep on the couch as I type this but he is a bit restless..So I will keep this brief.  I wish you all a happy day.. Send out some prayers for us..good decisions and cheap clean apartments..:  )  Have a great day I know I will..  Watch out for pirates now and remember to

BREATHE and smile for me
