It Wasn't So Bad Afterall

I saw my apartment today for the first time in about six or seven weeks now. Mold was everywhere and so was my furniture. The good news is I was able to get my poetry. The briefcase it was in was molded, but my journals were dry. It has that nasty smell to it, but the pages are dry. I was also able to retrieve four pairs of shoes out of about twenty or thirty pairs. All of my clothes were damaged and I could not find my jewelry because things were everywhere. My cd's were scattered about though there were some that were still in place. Because there was about four feet of water in my apartment, I believe all of my cd's were under water. Overall, I was happy to get my poetry. On a brighter note, my friend from Minnesota called me today. He appears to be settling a bit slowly into his new environment. I told him once he gets his place, I will fly out there and visit him. I have never been to Minnesota so it should be fun. He seemed happy about my gesture and offered to let me stay for as long as I like. I spoke with another friend of mine tonight who lives in DC. She offered to let me stay at her place while I look for a job in that area. I am interested in moving to DC. There is so much history and I enjoyed it for the two weeks that I was there. I am somewhat tired. I will get some rest and hopefully tomorrow will bring a more productive and informative day. Till then....
