For the last few weeks I have been getting really sick of our apartment. It's not that I hate it (because there are some nice things about it like "free Internet" and "free cable") but it's not the most pleasant place to live. The worse thing is that every time the people upstairs do their dishes my sink fills with stinky bubbles! It's totally gross!!! I can't stand the smell and I have to run the disposer every night and the stench just makes me gag and gag. Yuck. Everything else that already bothered me about this place like the cinder block walls just seems compounded with the negativity I feel about everything at this place. I've honestly been considering starting to pack I'm so excited to live in a place that has a nicer kitchen (everything we saw in Phoenix is 10X's better than what we've got right now) as well as real walls that I'm not fighting mold (the A.C. also has a peculiar smell which is pretty unbearable). I also can't wait to live in a place with just one more room than we have right now. I'm praying that there is an availability for a three-bedroom apartment when we move because I really need one!
So after all of my wishing I could stay in Utah I've decided that I'm more excited to get out of this apartment. This is good. If we did stay in Utah, I'd have to live here for at least another year and maybe 18 more months which I really don't know if I can take the gross factor much longer. Thank goodness Heavenly Father has my best interest in mind even though I was a little concerned that Jared wasn't offered a paid position here and only one in AZ. So, even though I'll miss my family and my friends, it may be really good for our marriage as well as our little family. We can be more cohesive as a unit and be able to create more traditions and memories just together since we've really have had a limit amount of time to actually do anything together besides family dinner each night which I pretty much have insisted on when it was reasonable.
So, at least Heavenly Father knows what I really need and right now it seems I really need to get out of this stinky apartment that causes me to gag spontaneously from the stench.

Lol, I know its not really funny, but I can totally here your voice when reading this. I'm glad you're excited to go now, even though it will be really weird to have you gone. I can't imagine family dinners with Megan and Bill as the only other family that are likely to come. It will be weird. Hopefully April will come more and Eric too. I'm glad he's been coming a lot more lately. Anyways yes, but even if everyone was there but you it wouldn't be at all the same. And Lilly will miss Christian terribly.
ReplyDeleteWe need to plan a zoo day before you go too, 'cause I was looking at your other blog and Lilly came in and wanted to look at all the pictures of Christian and it hit me that she was barely a year old last time we went. That was forever ago!
Anyways, I know Heavenly Father has our best interests in mind all the time, even when we can't see it. I hope you can get a nice 3 bedroom apartment that is clean and stench free.
