After 26 years of marriage, I called it quits. My divorce was final on October 12th, and I am legally jerk-free! If you want to know the particulars, contact me and I will tell ALL. I won't keep his secrets or mince words.
Now, on to my new, improved life! Moving in to my new apartment. I started on July 28, and spent my first night there on August 2. Nina and Nollie followed and moved in on August 4th. What a place! Everything is newly painted and all the appliances work. What a concept!

My computer is in my bedroom. I have dial-up access now... I also had to get a new printer since the old one leaked ink in the move. Did I mention how expensive this is? |
My old desk. It is the only "furniture" I brought with me, except my computer chair. Notice the Sweet Potato Queens' Divorce Guide on the bed. |
Lots of stuff crammed into my bedroom. My fabric, what little I have brought over so far, is in under bed boxes. I'm still working out how to store all my sewing and scrap booking stuff. |

I went a bought a cheap TV with a built in DVD and VCR. Yes, those are rabbit ears on the floor near the window. I won't be getting cable until I stop hemorrhaging money. |
We lived with no real furniture for 2 1/2 weeks. I used that folding chair quite a bit. |
The toolbox is a basket on the kitchen counter. My "end table" for almost 2 weeks was that big old TV box. |
This is the view from our sliding glass doors, through our little patio. Nollie spends most of her time staring out this window. Neighbors entertain her by bringing their dogs past. |
The "Lake" view. (It's a Florida phenomenon: the storm water retention pond). |
Nollie makes sure we know if anything hops or slithers by. The photos on the box were the ones I took to my first scrap booking class I took on 8/20. |
The used dining set. It's a round, glass-top and metal table, and the chairs are metal and wicker. I would prefer wood, but since I put a cloth on it anyway, who will know? |
Nina in the pantry. |
My new couch! Now I need to move Jim Dandy over a little. |
The china cabinet. It's fake oak. If you squint and look closely you can see the pad of yellow cow paper that used to be in Daddy's house. I brought the tradition with me! That's my scrap booking stuff (some of it) in the boxes around it. |

Nollie is so color coordinated with the couch that she disappears on it.
