slightly gutted, but thrilled in a different way

There is good and bad news here.

You will likely want the bad news first.

The move that I am having is only "internal within the "company" campus", so to speak, not out to a freestanding apartment by my friends place. So I will be staying in the building at all costs.

Good news now. The "internal" apartment will be BRAND NEW. Just shiny new and never lived in. I go directly "down the HALL" so to speak right into the new apartment. I retain the same oldy-moldy, "music" address. No address change so to speak.

So I am slightly "pinched" but happy at the same time. Bruised rose petal, but still smelling fresh.

    When you get down about it -just think of all the millions of people out of work and homeless and your apartment will seem like luxury.

    Devon,

    I'm so sorry things didn't work out for you. I was hoping you would be able to move back to your old neighborhood. Sal has the right advice for situations like these. No matter what I wake up every morning and say a prayer of gratitude for having a roof over my head!

    Absolutely. I know that. I AM damned thankful that I damn well have a roof over my head and HOT meals served 3X a day by nurse-servants. I should be ^%$#@$^& thankful by far. I should shut up and be bloody thankful. Oh sure, as momma says, it IS sad not to be with friends, but a shiny never lived in apartment, brand spanking new is a HUGH luxury beyond comprehension.
