Still Stepping

Today I had to go shopping for clothes because A never got around to sending any of mine. Anyway, I probably would have needed some new things anyway. I ended up getting four pairs of work pants, two skirts and three tops and a little jacket thing. I haven't added up how much I spent - it'll probably be depressing - but everything but one pair of pants came from the clearance rack. Surprisingly, Dillards had better sales than Macy's. My friend also said that since she lost some weight, she has some clothes that may fit me, so we're going to go through those tomorrow.

I contacted the apartment complex about the studio to ask what they need me to bring in. Most places request a copy of your most recent paycheck as proof of income, but I explained that I'm starting a new job and she said that they can just do a credit check and I can get a note from the company stating I was offered a position there, and that would be fine. Since I don't have Parker yet, I won't have to pay the $200 pet deposit immediately. I should be able to move in for a pretty reasonable price.

It looks like I'll have to set up the apartment before getting a car, which means I won't actually be able to move into the place, but at least no one else will be able to snatch it up. Maybe I'll just sign the papers tomorrow and set the move-in date for the 15th. That should be enough time to get a car, if A sends a good-sized check.

I can't wait until things are settled. Getting my car and insurance set up will be a huge relief. Also I need to get my electric & cable installed, and renters insurance. The cable can wait, but the other two are required for move-in.

Soooo extremely stressed.
