Bill and I moved this week. Not out of Knoxville, just to another apartment. It is much bigger!! We really like it. The only issue is that we have to drive to school now, it's about 5 miles from the campus. But for the price of it and the price of the closer apartmenst it comes out the same (only difference is the SIZE!!). We also have a washer and drier now, no more paying 10 dollars a week to do laundry. We have had some issues with our washer and drier, though. We purchased them from a local person that we found on craigslist...what a mistake!! The drier was in bad shape when we turned it on (first lesson learned, don't pay the people without testing the merchandise). So we searched for a used appliance store where we could trade the drier we had with a "new" one. We did just that, thought we were set, then the drier stayed on all night...the timer didn't work. We have a 90 day warranty so we took it back, and instead of fixing it they just gave us a different one. huh...wierd. Then we find out that used appliance stores are the worst place to buy stuff..WHAT??? (second lesson learned, don't buy from used appliance stores) Who can we trust, especially when all we can afford is used???? I am so upset right now. The "newest" drier that we have smells really weird. Our clothes don't even smell clean when we take them out. I'm not sure if this is the washer or drier. The WASHER had issues the first time we used it too, the aggitator didn't even turn..so our clothes just soaked in the water while NOTHING MOVED. So, Bill fixed it; now it works..hopefullly it won't break. Now, I'm just wondering how to make our drier smell better. Tonight Bill is going to take it apart and clean it. Maybe that will help. Do you have any suggestions?
In other news, we are officially finished with school for this semester. I actually did much better than I expected at the beginning of the semester. This was a pretty tough semester, however, I was still able to manage to be on the Dean's List. Bill also did really well this semester. Of all his classes, his favorite was his Shakespeare class...who'd-a-thought!!! He really enjoyed disecting Shakespeares plays. I also really enjoy Shakespeare, so I was glad Bill found it interesting...Maybe if there is ever a play in town we will go!! Bill has one semester left. I have two semesters left! We are looking forward to graduating, however, I will be continuing my education at the graduate level!! I have really enjoyed my classes in this degree, so I would like to continue getting as much education as I can.
