So. Housy crisis is averted... Turns out we're not getting kicked out after all. The short version of the story is that the people next door (their house is owned by the same guy, built the same year) are being evicted because they screwed up and pissed our landlord off. We jumped to conclusions when they came over and told us they were being kicked out. We thought is was house flattening time.
The moral of the story, kids, is don't assume. We talked to our landlord yesterday, he told us everything was fine with our place... but they're still being knocked down in six to nine months.
But....
The boy and I have decided to find a new place. Together. So we did. An incredible downtown loft... huge windows, high ceilings, all new inside, our own washer and dryer, A DISHWASHER!!! I am tres excited to move in! Its gorgeous! I'm for sure going to miss this house, but there are lots of things about it that I'm not going to miss too.
So everyone who has been to my house and was sad to hear it was being torn down; Rejoice! She still has a little life left in her.
We can take possession of the new house any time I want after this week, so I suppose its time to get packing. Blech.

Unpacking has started. I am creating more empty boxes daily.

You, my dear, cannot go near the devil-gnocchi until it submits to my will. I forbid it. You SHOULD, however, come over for dinner and I will make anything BUT gnocchi. I'm out of town this weekend, but maybe sometime next week?
