I'm looking around my rental home in Lubbock and wondered why the hell did I unpack so much of our load.
I had pictures hung up on the wall, loads of kitchenware stashed in cabinets. And now I'm moving out in mid-December. I know we leased this place for 6 months but the homemaker in me just can't resist making the present place homey. Now, I have to start taping up the boxes and packing the miscellaneous back.
I only started househunting (for rent, not to own) yesterday and today, I lucked out finding one in a good neighborhood that has two tennis courts, playground and lake nearby, and for $300 less.
Since I never got into a habit of soaking, the small tubs don't faze me either. I hope I can convince M to take it. The public tennis courts and cost more than make up for the flowery granny wallpaper.
The cost of rental in Lubbock is ridiculous considering the standard of living here is low and cost of living high.
Most newer homes rent for $1000 onwards, and the older houses with the panel wood walls and musty carpets rent for $900.
My renters in Augusta should realize they scored well with our home.
They got it for a song.
