BRIGHAM CITY, here I come! The ball is rolling, and it's rolling straight to Brigham City.
I gave my 30-Day Notice to Vacate to my current manager on Wednesday, January 25th. Yippee! This means that I will be leaving Logan by Saturday, February 25th. Again, Yippee! Now that my daughter has 'skipped' town and obviously taken her son with her, there is nothing left to keep me in Logan. So, although I love my current apartment, because of the negativity and hostility I have had to live with over the past three years (I won't go into details), suffice it to say, that having lived in Logan since January 1st, 1996, it's time for a change.
I found an apartment in Brigham City, only seven blocks from where my physical therapist and his family lives. I became a 'facebook' friend with his wife, but now, I am a face-to-face friend. We have already spent some time together and we like each other. I first met LT when she and her husband, my PT, came down to St. Mark's to bring me home, following my surgery. I have known my PT, JT, for almost two years.
I am going to pay my rent for the first 25 days of February. However, that does not mean that I have to stay here that long. The manager of my new apartment in BC would like me to move in as soon as I can. So, I may be out of here in two or three weeks, or even less.
JT is getting some of the men he works with, to help me move – on this end. He is also getting some of the Elder's Quorum from his ward to help with the unloading. My son will also be coming up from Sunset, to help unload. And because of my lack of strength and other health issues, there will be ladies from the Relief Society to help me unpack and get my household set up.
Where I am currently, my entrance door opens up into a hallway. One of the things I wanted to look for at my new apartment was whether or not I would be able to have a screen door because I know/knew that my entrance door was to the outside. Well, I don't have to worry about a screen door purchase, because there is already one on the door! Fabulous. I can hardly wait until the weather starts getting warmer. I LOVE having my door open, because I am a little bit claustrophobic.
I am SOOOOO excited about the move. It's been a long time in Logan. Now, I can have a new life, new experiences, and new friends. It's like I am starting over again … having just made a life-altering change in my health and life-style.
I will write more as time permits and after I get settled in, in my new home.
Linda, I am so excited for you! Now that you have changed yourself and your life, a new start in living arrangements makes so much sense. Your new place sounds wonderful. I'm glad you have friends already close by and that you will be making Church friends right off the bat - that is always a good thing! Congratulations!!!
