We found an apartment and we did not have to look that hard. All were equally expensive but at least we got something near a bike trail and a train station. My husband will be riding his bike to work, so we won't need a second car. Too bad, because we had even chosen the car we would buy when we had the money, and we even got to test drive one purely by chance: We had an economy rental car but it had a leak, so we returned it and they replaced it with a pricier car which turned out to be the model we had been thinking on.
The apartment has a kitchen window, which I love, and a small balcony, which my dog will love.
Dog? Yes, I have a dog. Or used to have one. He's been in Mexico for a while and my parents have turned him into a spoiled brat. I think it's time I get him back, although my father might not be willing to give him up after two and a half years. I bet the dog would rather stay with my mother, but I believe she's tired of taking care of him. My husband is not crazy about him, but he understands that I need some furry company and that I miss my pooch.
Jennifer, you were right, it was very hot, but I believe it's hotter in North Carolina just now. I think I can stand the Bay area heat (at least it cools down during the night), and I'm sure I'll love the mild winters.
No knitting pictures this time. I did not bring my knitting with me but I just made a few more rows on the raglan.

I'm so glad you found a place. At least you know where you're going. Housing can cause a lot of stress.
Congratulations on finding something that sounds like a good fit so quickly! And that's exciting that you'll be getting your dog back -
Congratulations! Gotta love it when things come together smoothly like that.
I am so excited that you get to bring your puppy back to you! That's as exciting as your new apartment! Yahoo for you and puppy!
BTW - just out of curiosity, what sort of car would you have bought if it had been needed?
We wanted a Toyota Matrix or a Pontiac Vibe, and we got a Vibe rental without paying the upgrade. Neat!
It seems that I won't get custody of my dog that easily. Some other members of the family are complaining already. We'll see...
