I mowed my lawn today.

Time to move to the US or Canada, Min.

Hopefully you managed to mow your lawn without the dude staring

All Ends Well?

After living in a room at Motel 6 for over a year, struggling to pay the insane weekly bill and still have money to eat and commute around town (no wheels, relying on Lyft or Uber), we've been given an offer that'd be foolish to decline.
Two of my buddies and former bandmates made the two hour drive south to find my fiancee and I. Guised as a chance to catch up over some weed and Chipotle, I was basically given an intervention:

How we've been managing to live for the past year is unsustainable and so much crazier than the idea of moving back home.

One of my homies recently inherited his grandmother's house up north where we grew up and proposed we move in ASAP. He owns it outright so there's no rent, all we'd be responsible for is a meager tri-monthly water utility bill.
With the trailer came his grandmother's car which he's offered us to use and later buy for cheap once our feet are underneath us again...
It's all sounding too damn good to be true, but for every question and concern has been a solid, sensible answer. I went up and spent the night to get a look at the place. It's a pretty well kept double-wide on the outskirt of town (of about 600 people), all it needs is some new flooring and a lick of new paint! Bills are already paid up until June so we'd have even more time to decompress and settle in before picking up jobs.
PLUS! My dude's recording setup is already plugged in and ready to fly, we're hoping to get back to seriously creating some music once I move my all of my gear in. Electronic drum kit, bass, amps, a couple mics. With our powers combined, we'll be unstoppable.
It's been a wildly emotional, intensely liberating weekend and it's only just the beginning of yet another second chance. We're frantically getting our affairs in order, starting by putting in my two weeks at the landscaping job tomorrow. My lady is going to try and transfer herr Circle K job to a closer location up north while I start looking for new work, hoping to land a gig before we even move so I can start immediately...
In two weeks, our little life together can finally change for the better for the first time in a long time. A weight and a darkness had suffocated my spirit for so long that it became the norm. This room had started becoming the only reasonable, foreseeable future we could find. It's all lifting off of our shoulders and brightening up. Being up home this weekend, seeing some friends I hadn't seen or talked to for over a year... It was blinding. We've been so tired for so long, so hopeless. No longer. This is it. All Ends Well.
