  Well, my birthday month is almost over and sadly my birthday was the most exciting thing going on at The Temporary Tiny Place for Two for the month of February. My sister gave me the clear glass Southern Living Pears for my birthday and I just love this little above the refrigerator kitchen corner I created earlier this month.

The growth of this family has been exponential and number over fifty today. She quietly fought racism by becoming the first of this, that and the other abroad and state side.

I just could not help myself, so I called to inquire as to the status. You see, I was desperately planning on looking for a one bedroom place, when the  Temporary Tiny Place for Two  suddenly, became available. I'd been  suddenly  working a little more than six weeks without housing, sleeping on my adult children's sofas and I was dog tired. I was dog tired and desperate, when I signed the twelve month lease.  So, here I am. So, here we are.  I keep praying about the beauty of the one bedroom apartment, but the Holy Spirt keeps nugging me to just let it go.  Yesterday, I asked the question. I don't want to live wondering what if. So, I asked my land lord, if there was any way I could maybe transfer my lease.  The  Temporary Tiny Place for Two was actual...
