Thanks for the positive thoughts, folks! I think I may have met the right person. We clicked right away, she has a large art studio, DOES NOT DRINK, is in need of web/graphic design (which I can provide) and said she'd waive the fee of my rent for next month in exchange for these services I can do! Wow. In addition, I think we really got along as -- do I dare say, friends? I only met her today be we seemed to be on the same page and I told her I though it could be the real deal. She seemed to agree! I think we're going to be in the business of helping each other. I'm so happy it seems to be coming together.
Thanks, all, for caring!
