We Found A Roommate!

Already!!!

I can hardly beleive it.  Four people had responded to our ads thus far and we had set up two viewings, one yesterday and one this evening.  The one yesterday went fairly well. He was a little concerned about the amount utilities are each month (i think he lived in a condo before), but other then that - things went really well. 

We had some really steller weather tonight (and I say that with a heavy sarcastic tones - we got another 6-8 inches of snow) - so viewing number two cancelled.

Well right about the time we're sitting down to watch Bones - viewer number one gave us a call.  He's given notice with his roommate and wants to move in on January 1st!!!

Jordan was the one on the phone with him.... him...he need's a name -  let's call him - James - so Jordan is on the phone with James and confirms that he's fine with $500/month in rent and $500/damage deposit - he is - it's great!

Yay!  We can go on with our house fund as planned - this is fantastic news.  It wasn't even that hard!
