I did it .. I chose the one facing the lakefront ... and closer to my friends ... it was a tough decision .. and I had to make a choice ...

the 2nd place is bigger and offers more amenities ... includes frige, stove, mike and dishwasher ... and extra storage within the room ...

now to get the internet set up ...

thanks again for all your thoughts and well wishes! I'll be able to move in TODAY (well, if their computer system is back up and running) ... or tomorrow .. but, I won't be homeless anymore!
