i am approved for an apartment in centralia -- just the wrong one. It is OK..later move in and it will be easier. I have not seen it..saw and claimed the other one but there was a mixup. Anyway, getting rid of stuff..nothing fancy. I am so glad I downsized sooner. i said I will have nothing that does not fold or collapse or deflate and I meant it. One office chair is the exception, and I am sure it comes apart. I have one problem and that is my tutoring. I need to make sure that I am totally covered from one place to another. I have talked to spectrum and they said they do this all the time. if bad comes to worse do you think a library would let me use a private room and their internet for a few days? that might be best solution.

car is a peninsula car and not bought to go long distances. so hopefully it will keep working till i am moved. it drives very well...has had problems starting..everything is replaced and it has been working all the time so I might be OK. I am not moving with anything vital in my car..which would be papers mostly.

well, i am looking forward to it. blocks from a library, community college, train station, safety, church. what more do I need ? would like a swimming pool nearby. Google centralia, washington if you are interested. I forgot..I am two blocks from McDonald's now and a couple of miles when I move. Oh well.
