Unneeded Stress
Posted in Personal on October 16th, 2007This moving thing is really stressing me out. My wife informed me this morning on the way to work that she read some review about the apartment that we just put in an application fee for, and she no longer wanted to live there. The fee was $50 and it is non-refundable. That really sucks. On a tight budget, we can’t really afford to just toss $50 our of the window.
On the other hand I would really rather my wife feel safe. She went out today looking for apartments again and found another one. I couldn’t go with her to this one because I had to work. So after reading some of the reviews about the place I decided to give them a call. Despite what some of the reviews were saying, Brenda, the lady that answered the phone, was quite pleasant.
I told her my concerns about what I had been reading, and asked some questions based on other things that I had found out about the apartment community. After speaking with her for a while I felt comfortable enough to ask my wife to go ahead and fill out the required paper work. I didn’t really see a need in waiting for this place as we have to have some place to live.
Over all the stress, that shouldn’t have been there in the first place, I have just decided to relax about it. It will work itself out and I will still have a place to live. Beside, I have friends that will let me spend the night if need be, I hope. Kevin, will respond shortly with, “your wife can say with us but you will have to sleep with Charlie,” that is their dog. so see Kevin, no need to post a comment, but go a head anyway.
