Advenures in Apartment Managing!


Yes, it's a new chapter for us, but very exciting!
I know a lot of you are probably thinking, "she's stupid... getting excited over apartment managing?" But do you know what this means?
No more paying rent!! or internet....or utilities (for the most part)
And all that for a little bit of work?? I think I can force myself to do it.

And actually there are a lot of people who are trying to get into the business of managing apartments these days. Apparently there were at least af ew other couples or so that were hoping to manage the ones we got, but thanks to visiting teachers that put a good word in for you, we got lucky and get the opportunity to save A LOT of money! And my visiting teacher (the one who is doing it now) said it's a really easy managing job compared to most, which is another plus. There are only 16 units, and no one ever moves from there apparently because they like it so much and it requires less than 10 hours of work a week! (depending)

Just thinking about the possibility of how much money we can save is really the thing that makes me the most excited. And being able to save for a good down-payment on a house?? I mean that's what you need these days! So...within 3 weeks we will be moving just up the street!

Just a little Disclaimer: managing these apartments doesn't mean that we are in the poor house and can't afford to live anywhere (although some places we sure canNOT afford) we are doing it to save money, pay off bills, build up food storage, etc. So I don't want anyone to think they have to send us money because we don't have any.....although donations are accepted! :) hee hee totally kidding

Also in the land of excitement....I joined a Co-Ed Indoor Soccer League! Woo hoo! It's been quite a long while since I played, and even longer since I played Indoor so this should be good!
Oh how I've missed playing, it will be nice to get out there to get some good exercise and show those boys how to play!

Oh my gosh! That is so exciting! Was this the managing job you told me about a couple months ago? I'm so glad you got it. Also, thank you so much for your birthday message. It was so good to hear from you.
