Well, I’ve found the perfect place, with the rent varying between 450-500 a month. (We pay half the utilities, as opposed to ALL of them, plus the pet deposit we’d have paid in the cheapest one-room apartment I could find that would allow pets, which started at the same price as this one.)

It’s basically shared living, but we have access to a full kitchen, two full baths, a laundry room, living room, and foyer. Our cat can come with, and she’ll have two other cats to hang out with while we’re away at work, so that takes away the need to buy a second cat ourselves. (She’s very clingy, for a kitty.) Our rabbit, aggression issues and all, is also welcome, but needs a second vet visit to discuss stress levels and how to help her cope with the move.

Now all that’s left is to find a storage space for all the extra furniture, and go sign that one-year lease! I’ve located a nice, affordable storage facility within walking distance, and I can sign the lease whenever I can wrangle my fiance and my future landlord into the same room for five minutes. Move-in date is May! :D

When you go through 3 gallons of milk a week in a two-person household, you know you have a problem. Thank to cutting back, we’re down to just under one gallon, and that includes all the milk we use for cooking and baking. :)

My fiance has to cut down on milk consumption, so I’ve decided to do it right along with him. Lots of Tulsi tea today, because everyone’s so sick in this house. The only milk I’ve had today was on my muffin. :)
