I am beyond excited. I found a place for me and DD!!
To circle back a bit, I have been struggling to find a place to live. For the past 24 years I have lived on my XWH's family 60 acre farm. I have loved it here, always. Loved the mud, the cold, the long gravel drive that stayed frozen most of the winter. I didn't care.
XWH and I operated a small stable, there were always parties and gatherings with friends. It was hard for me to think about leaving because I thought I would die here. The house belongs to XWH and his relatives. They have loved having me here and we got along in spite of the divorce, but farm was also dying -- falling into disrepair, fences falling down, fallen trees everywhere. It was also time to go because DD is off to college in the fall.
But I found a 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment up the road over a beautiful barn. I even knew the original owners at one time. There were 32 people vying for the apartmetn but I secured it today with a deposit. Best of all the new owners are in the same line of work as me. I am filled with joy. So many places fell through or didn't feel right. This one did immediately.
I can't wait.

This is awesome!!! I know your anxiety about living arrangements has gone on for a while. I'm so happy that this is settled for you. You kept at it and made it happen! I hope you feel great personal satisfaction at your accomplishment.
Yaaay! Onward Fablegirl!

Hi Fablegirl - That's great that you have your own place lined up and that you like it so much. I feel very lucky to have found my own living situation that I like, now that I am separated. I think it's super valuable to have a place that works for you and makes you feel good and not the opposite.
Many congrats!!
