I found an apartment. It great. Real big and at a great price. Only problem is its not available until 9/8. Temporary housing in the DC area would run somewhere around $4000 which is way beyond my limits! Amazingly my first husband and his wife have offered me the use of their house for about 3 weeks before I move in to the new place (you coulda knocked me over with a feather when they made that offer!).
So how the hell do I manage to stay here and stay sane for 6 wks or so?
