Life has been a little crazy. Our lease does not end until November; however, we are moving out anyway because this apartment was not made to hold two people working from home. My office is currently in our bedroom, so I don’t have that nice work-life balance.
I have been wanting to break the lease for several months, but the cost of doing so was deterring me from following through. Well, a few nights ago, I was once again woken up at 1am by our downstairs neighbors having a brawl. It is bad enough that during the day there is noise and not enough space, but if I can’t even get a good night’s sleep then it is not for me.
We looked at a house we really like yesterday and we submitted an application. I really really really hope we are chosen because while the house needs some work, it is perfect for what we need it for right now. We would be looking to sign a lease for 2 years and then we plan on buying a house further south.
Fingers crossed we are chosen!!

Hello, I hope your house search went well!
I found your blog because I’ve been considering doing an NCCC service year and am trying to do a lot of research beforehand. The posts you’ve written are really thorough and helpful, thank you for documenting it! I think if I do a service year with NCCC, I’ll try to document the experience also.
