We get to move in to our apartment today! 😊 Finally! I can't say that I'll never go camping again, but it's definitely gonna be awhile lol. So, the apartment is really tiny and we had to pay a ridiculous amount of money to get it (bad credit), but at least we have a roof over our heads now. No more being homeless! Yay! The apartments have a fitness center that's right next to our building, a tanning bed, and a hot tub. They also have lots of grass for Griffin.

Poor puppy got really sick yesterday. He went to the bathroom something like 18 times within the day. He ended up going in his kennel when we were in the chiropractor's office, which was awful. Since we were camping, I took him and the kennel down to the river to clean it out. As soon as he got in the water he went to the bathroom another 3 times, right in the river. He definitely was not a happy puppy yesterday.

I also somehow popped my hip out of its socket yesterday afternoon. I was fine all morning, then when I went to pick David up from work I was in excruciating pain. Driving was almost impossible. David had a chiropractor appointment anyways, so we asked if they could either fit me in or substitute me for David. At first they said no, but when they saw how much pain I was in, they changed their minds. Apparently my hip was out of place by like a whole inch! I felt relief as soon as he adjusted me, and this morning, there's almost no pain. He was also nice enough not to charge us for my adjustment at all, which would have been $75 because I'm a new patient. He's a really cool guy and was also very happy to hear that we found a place to live. Everyone is so nice here.

I start my first day being a receptionist for the week. It will be nice to do some desk work again. In about 2 hours when Kinko's opens up, I'm going to print off some resumes to give to that guy at David's work. I was going to do it yesterday, but Griffin started getting sick when I was driving so I kind of forgot about it.

When the Starbuck's behind me opens up, I'm gonna go in the bathroom and see if I can't get the smell of campfire off of me. Not too appealing for the workplace haha.

I will post pictures of our apartment either tonight or tomorrow. Thank you to everyone who helped us out and is still helping us! We love you guys so much! I'll post some stuff later. Love you all!!!!!
