This will be short and sweet... I hope.
Tuesday: Ship out from the house at 6am. Meet/pick up father. At Stennis at 9:15am. Meet boss at 9:30am. Finger printed at 10am. Apartment hunting right after... Explore Picayune (um, it's ok). Find Arbor Gate Apts (after 45 min of searching)... nice, ritzy-ish, prigh-say, no thanks. Meet Ann Musgrove. She shows us 3 apartments. I like! We leave. Boss calls. Back to Stennis. Hand over papers. Leave. Stop at Woodstock furniture. Home at 8pm. Worn out.
Wednesday: Boring start to day. Drama. Meet Jessica in Meridian and purchase kitchen-type stuff.
Thursday: Slow start. DeKalb. Call Mrs. Ann back to confirm an apartment. Rice Hot. Receive a call... "Oh, you make too much too much money to stay my apartment." Panic! Receive call... "I can't do anything to approve you for the apartment. Let me call so&so. Nope, theirs are full. Hmm, let me look." Dad calls another guy. He's looking. Dad calls Ann back to understand the problem. She does have one apartment but won't be ready until end of month. Dad receives call from guy... "There's a guy I know that has an apartment in his barn/workshop that he's willing to put your daughter in for the time being." Hallelujah and whatever at the same time. I'm tired of hoping for anything and just ask that I have a bed, a shower, washer/dryer.
Friday: Back to Picayune with my mother about 8:15am. Receive call... "Jaclyn, this is Johny Hays. Are you ready to stop goofing around? Be at my office at 8am Tuesday morning." Make it there by 10:45am (oops. heavy foot??) Meet Mr. Haynz Hazlemire (he/his wife works at Stennis as well). He is so down-to-earth, Alabama fan (.....), proceeds to shows us completely around the place. Leave nearly 1.5 hours later. Drive to the apartment that I'll be in. Drive to the apartment that I wanted to be in. Northbound on I59. Nearly 5 miles from merging into I20 at Meridian... traffic comes to complete stop. An hour later, finally running 60+ mph. (Geez) Home by 6pm. Ugh.
