Well we are doing it! 

We have put a hold deposit down on an apartment and should be moving in at the end of January. 

This is has been a long and nerve wracking process for the both of us. 

Some of you may say but Ashlynn you and J are 25 almost 26yrs old what are your talking about don't be a pansy!!

Well J's dad got a new job in VA Beach, and we had been told before by both of his parents they wanted us to keep the house, take care of it till they decided to retire... 

Yea that's not happening any more and the only way we figured it out was being told that a family friend is coming to look at the house, who is a realtor/interior designer. We wernt told when the plan on leaving either. 

So we have been saving as much as possible with the holidays here and both of us making less than those fast food workers who make $15/hr. Money is going to be tight, J is so stressed and frustrated(work & job stuff mostly) he cant sleep and is making himself sick. 

Ive made a budget, because I am a numbers gal i need to set it all out and see that its possible & it looks totally doable with money left to save for a house or whatever it maybe. 

I am not gonna lie I am scared shitless!! I shouldn't be but I am, I make very little at my job and have student loans and car payments due everything month which I always feel like takes all my money  but it really doesn't. My anxiety has gotten bad as well, constantly mindfully breathing and counting to ten  or however long it takes me to get straight. 

So thats my shpeal for now, just updated you guys (even if there isnt many)

Thanks for letting me share my life with you and tagging along while we learn life! 

Any tips to make a tiny 707 sq ft apartment feel like home??
