In Orlando Day 2 till I found a place to live

The next few days were spent researching. I also got a storage unit so that I could get all my worldly procession out of my car. I got an emails from Mike Nyffeler and Pastor Steve that both had a couple of place in them. I called most of them and only got a call back from 2. So total I had 3 options for a place to live. The first place was a last resort; it was about 20 miles from school. The second place, the place that I ended up, was right around the corner from school. And the third is about 10 miles from school. Well Wednesday, that would have been July 27, afternoon, I got a call from Jason at place two and he asked me a few question about me and said that he would pray about it and call me in the evening. About 10 minutes later I got a call from Edger at place three saying that if I wanted to come and look at his place he would be there in the later that evening. A little background here, when I was first looking to move back to Florida I was working with Edger and a couple of other guys on rooming together. I had to tell Edger that I was going to have to back out because it was not sounding like he could pull off finding a place before I got back here. Back to the story; I went up to look at Edger's place in Oviedo and it looked nice. I could have my own room and own bathroom for $500 including utilities. While I was there, Jason called and said that I could have the room if I still wanted it. It was $400 a month plus a 1/3 of the utilities. I still had my own room, but a shared bath with his brother. Edger said that I could have the small bedroom in the house, which was upstairs and had a shared bath for $450. I told him that being close to school was more important to me. The next day I moved in to Jason's place and he helped me to get most of my stuff out of storage. That was long story. The other day I added up how much I spent on hotels over that 10 day span. I will just say that it was little less than two months of rent. Ouch.

School is now on the horizon and I happy to have a place to live.
