Loosing our apartment.

Beware of Flying Pickles for they are immortal and cannot be eaten ...and every so often they might nibble on your soul :p
I don't know how active I'll be on here until I'm at least sure that we won't be homeless.
Hubby came home from doing an odd job yesterday evening to find a note on our door. We have until April 30th to be out of here and in a new place. The note was basically them saying that they do not want to renew our lease agreement. Our building has recently been bought by a new owner who is basically, slowly giving all the old tenants the boot so that they can renevate everything and raise the rental prices.
This could not come at a worse time for my hubby and I as we are both in between jobs. I am in training for a tech support job and he is looking for a somewhat labor intensive job and has been applying to places as quickly as he can. (He likes to work at places like Lowe's or stocking jobs).
I've been terribly upset since we got the notice and have yet to sleep, my head is still pounding from my first anxiety attack in over a month and I am still stuffy from the tail end of a stupid head cold.
The silver lining
Or at least what I hope will be the silver lining...
We are researching a rental place that is not too far from where we are now that would be around 700 a month, it allows cats and the max limit is 2, which is fine because we only have 2 cats, pet deposit is 200 each. It also has a pool, and includes some utilities in the rent. Having a place to swim would be amazing beyond words and would vastly improve my quality of life. I could actually, comfortably exercise again.
And they have dishwashers! I never realized how much we take dishwashers for granted until I didn't have one.
If I can just get this job and somehow know for sure that we will have a place to live after April 30th, I will be so much less freaked out. I also feel a bit betrayed because this place really felt like home.We have lived here for a year and a half. I'm sad and disheartened and scared.

The new place seems nice though :) I hope it can become like a home again.
