Change of Plans

Not on moving, but on where i'll be moving to. I'm still headed towards Utah, but i'm moving to Layton, UT instead of West Jordan. It's a bit away (a whole 1.5 hours away from Orem by bus!) from everything but it is where another vet tech program is and the apartments are cheap. The apartment i'm looking at has a 1 bedroom for only $500 even. And animals up to 70 pounds are aloud AND $100 less for the pet deposit. It's also right across from the mall and 20 minutes walking distance from the college. Still close to bus lines, which is perfect. I checked on plane tickets and it's $197 with one stop in between, in Phoenix, AZ. Only a 5 hour flight though, which is good since i'm taking Charlie with me. Don't know how i'm going to ship Daisy to me...I'll figure it out.

But this way I will need less help from my dad since it's way cheaper than the $600 apartments in West Jordan. Don't know how i'm going to get from SLC to Layton though. That's a 30 minute drive...not too bad, but will probably be around $50 cab fare...*sigh*

The layout of the apartment. Not too shabby, even though it has no washer/dryer. I'll deal. Perfect size for me and my girls. Anyone know what the WH stands for in the dining area?!

Two More Months

It is November 11th and all I can think about is only 2 more months until I'm finally on my own. I am twenty-three next month, yet I still live with my dad, step-mom, and brothers. But that all will change on February 10th. I am leaving to Utah. Yes, yes, I know. Most of everyone is saying "ew, why are you so happy?" or "sounds boring". Well I grew up there, actually I grew up in alot of places. But I loved it there and I get to see actual snow again and my childhood friends live there. I am very excited to go back. I am moving to West Jordan, UT so I can get into Broadview University's vet tech program. I found a small apartment 10 minutes away by bus. It's only $599 (which is a good price, considering it is Utah). I am moving February, because I want to wait until I get my taxes back. Last year I got around $900 back and if I get even close to that much back I can use it for furniture, food, etc. Dad said he'd help me with the apartment bills until I get sitiated AKA get a job lol I've only ever worked for Wal-Mart so it's good to get away from that sort of work environment AKA they suck. I will be moving to Utah on my own, with no support in state (besides friends) so I will have to work hard. In the early hours I will be going to school and in the later hours I will be working.

That is just to let you get a feel of my story so far. Now I won't be entirely alone. I will be taking my two "daughters" with me;

Charlotte (Charlie-bottom) and Daisy (top) will be coming with me. Daisy is now 4 months old and is Charlie's daughter (last of her litter to stay). Charlie is around 2 3/4 years old.

At least they can keep me company :)
