Sep 15, 2022 – Signed for my first apartment

Today was the day I signed for my very first apartment. It feels bittersweet. The apartment is in AJ’s area, since staying in the house that VS and I had built was just too heavy. It is not that I could not afford to keep the house, but living there without VS was simply too much. Selling that home meant I had to find another place to live, and this felt like the right step. Since VS’s passing, I needed somewhere that would give me a chance to start over. The town I had been living in was far too small and isolating, and this apartment feels like the fresh start I have been needing.
