Cate- That apartment you looked at sounds like a shoebox!!. Dont give up i'm sure there's something out there for you. Dont you hate real estates they show you all the crappy places expecting you to just live anywhere. Most of the places we've rented over the years we've found on our own and just gone to the real estate saying we want to look at the places.
Good to here you told XP that your going to persevere with the bigger bottles as thats what she should be having. I hope El is ok and as you say your quitting your job so you'll have more time with her and be able to get her back into a routine.

Liz- No problem .
