So, the downsizing is mostly done except for the furniture. I have taken two tubs of clothes to Goodwill and two large garbage bags to the dump. I've rehomed most of my books, and have begun to actively search for a new place to live.
I'm mostly checking Craigslist and FB Marketplace for room shares, although I've learned that people are posting roomshares on real estate sites now as well. That's a new twist to me.
I did a FB post, letting folks know that I'm looking and if they hear anything to drop me a line. As soon as I did that, I started getting texts from Jorg's wife, Ashleigh, with links to apartments in the area. I believe she has an overinflated idea of my income.
I'll be making about $1200 a month after the MoveOut, so I figure I can pay about $600, max, in rent. And that has to include utilities. Ideally, I'd like something with a month-to-month lease, close to my current location because I really like where I live. I don't know if that's going to be feasible.
I may have to live out of my car for a while, or, WORSE, move back in with my Mom in The Town Waiting To Die. *sigh*
Also, I think this Chromebook I'm on is on it's last legs. It's been over a year since the update expiration and I'm starting to get website malfunctions. I can't watch Netflix on this thing, which was an excuse to get rid of Netflix. That's money saved right there as I mostly just watch YouTube videos anyway. I will NEVER buy another Chromebook, ever again.
