You need to declutter the shit out of your place.

Oh I know. With how expensive rent is we got a 2 bedroom townhouse apartment. We gave the kids the bedrooms and we took the dining room. But that means no closets or storage nooks for anything. So it’s hard to keep everything organized. The crazy part is that we pay $1800 a month to live like this.

I was gonna say “let me guess, you’re in NYC?” until I saw “we pay $1800/month”.

lol Nah, we live in Birmingham, Al. It’s a crazy place where you have the richest town in Alabama and at least at one point the second richest town in the south. Surrounded by an area that is incredibly impoverished. As a matter of fact according to this website and many others. We were number 3 in the nation for murders per capita, and are usually in the top 5.

Thats all to say that if you want a safe place to live in the city. You have to pay an outrageous amount of money to live among the wealthy. We are surrounded by multimillion dollar homes. We live in the cheap apartments here, and we could live so much cheaper, but we have a special needs kid that’s in school. So, if you want good education especially special needs. Live with the rich people. My kid goes to one of the best schools in Alabama. Which I realize is like saying I work at the best chemical factory in Bangladesh. But ya do what can hehehe.
