Something to ponder...

While I have been staying home from work, I have been doing a lot of "research". By "research" I mean house/apartment hunting! I have found my dream apartment here in Rapid City. I want to live there so so so so bad! Harmony Heights looks like a wonderful place to live! These apartments have a beautiful layout, an amazing pool, a tempting hot tub, a great looking fitness room, a social room, and they allow pets! Oh man, can you say YES! But of course the cost is much higher than we pay now... :(

Matt and I currently live in a one bedroom apartment and we both agree that we need more room! So the next place we live has to be a two bedroom or more... Plus, we have the "boys" so we need somewhere that allows pets. Which makes things difficult! Not everyone loves animals like we do! The apartments that we are looking at require a $500 deposit for cats. $500!!!!!! Yikes! Plus, $25 per month/per cat! Darn it!

So Matt and I have been debating if it is really worth moving into these amazing apartments... we would have to make some adjustments! Then there comes the other thought I have been pondering- moving to AZ! I know you all think I am crazy, but I am seriously thinking about it! As a nurse down in AZ, I would be making probably $5.00 more/hour! Plus, Matt would probably be able to find a job that pays better than how much he gets paid now. Matt would also probably be able to find something that relates a little more to his major. The place where my wonderful cousin, Amy, lives is amazing! She pays about $100-$150 more per month than it would cost if Matt and I lived in my "dream" apartment mentioned above. Really makes a person think! Plus, my cousin said that the hospital she works at is hiring right now...

I know this is crazy, but I can't help but think about it! But then I think about how homesick I get now and how much worse it would be if I lived that far away from my family and friends! Except for the fact I would have Amy there!!!!!!! LOVE HER! She thinks it would definitely be worth it! He he he... Of course she does! I for sure want to work at RCRH at least one year though. I am learning so much where I work and I love the people I work with! They are all so kind to me! I wouldn't mind sticking with the job I have now...

Oh decisions!
