What the h*ll was I thinking??
So, in celebration of my first real night at my new apartment downtown on Lake Michigan, I thought I'd walk to work today... in 3" suede heels... while attempting to carry a clutch purse and an umbrella... in ridiculous wind gusts and rain. It was... an epic failure. Complete with blisters.

I actually READ things I'm asked to sign...
So, I've found an apartment I intend to rent. They just sent me the lease to sign - yeah, there's HUGE problems with how it's written and unless they agree to my many revisions, I'm so not signing it.... For example... it states the Landlord can enter the premises at any time. Well, that's not Wisconsin Law. And I won't…

Guns baby... More specifically ladies shooting guns.
So... I'm shooting a gun in this pic. One and only time I've gone shooting. It was fun. But, I've gotten some interesting PMs with people that find it inappropriate or even appalling. I'm intrigued... What are your thoughts?

Having trouble thinking this through... thoughts?
I have to move by Oct 15th (end of lease). I can not buy due to circumstances in my divorce (although it was final 3 years ago). My IDEAL situation was to find a single family home I could rent, and then purchase once the legal formality is over (18 months from now). So, rent-to-own or land contract. Unfortunately, I only…

On moving out with Roommates...
Tell your roommate stories from when you were in the roomate years! I am well past them (thank goodness) and can say I had phenomenal roommates for the most part. My only problems were: 1. Roommate paid me direct for rent. Twice it bounced, causing my payments to others to bounce, hundreds in fees, and no retribution…

Getting w/ the times...
So, my boy just started Kindergarten at a private school. There is an online system for everything from emailing the staff, fundraisers, parent directory, paying tuition, etc... That's great. My gripe is that it doesn't permit at all for divorced or non-married co-parenting. There's a place for both names, but only one…
