Happy November! I'm Moving!!

I know it's Tuesday and I'm supposed to be studying algebra, but I have some awesome news! Late last year, I applied for an apartment in a very nice building on the other side of the Severn River from where I currently live. This afternoon, I received a phone call asking me if I wanted a ground floor apartment that will be available in mid-December. I said yes!

I didn't jump right in and accept right away, but sat down with my checkbook, looked over my bills, and ran some numbers to make sure I could afford it. I also talked to the assistant manager of the building and will qualify for several programs that will help out.

I won't be driving any more or any less, really, because I'll be closer to school but farther from dialysis. Basically, instead of being 3 miles from dialysis and 7 miles from school, I'll be 5-7 miles from dialysis and 2 miles from school. I'm so excited! I really can't concentrate on math right now, so I'm just going to work on Intro to Computers instead. I'll save Thursday for my replacement Algebra study day.

That's basically my Tuesday every week: Algebra Study Day. It's going well, too. My class average is still over 100% because of extra credit points earned on the tests.

We're already in Week 11 of the fall semester, so there's just one month to go until finals. Wow, it has flown by!

On the stitching front, there's really nothing to show or tell. I haven't touched a needle since the first weekend of October. I have been completely focused on school, and I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing.

Until the next time, take care and be safe out there!

Hugs,
Beth
