What a week. We are still shell-shocked that another transplant is even necessary, as great as Jimmy looks and feels, and we were so convinced that it was going to be a good summer. This recent twist has rained on our parade big time.
Before we left Atlanta, we looked at an apartment in our old complex, and Jimmy reserved it with his American Express card, and it was to be ready for us this weekend. Then Friday afternoon, some helium-voiced nitwit with whom we have only talked on the phone called to say she was sorry but she'd accidentally rented it to someone else, and nothing else was available.
Thinking that we'd have to stay in a hotel for a few days while we searched for a new place, Jimmy got on the internet to do some reconnaissance for corporate apartments in the area. He called a number he found, and yes, something had just come available, and it was ready to be moved in on Saturday. Jimmy told her he'd take it, and we drove up yesterday hoping for the best.
We love it! It's at the Post Briarcliff on Briarcliff and La Vista, and much more pleasant than the place we didn't get and our old Gables apartment. It's close to the hospital and next door to Whole Foods and across the street from our favorite Thai restaurant, and it's bright and comfortable. We lucked out on this one.
We're at the clinic this morning where Jimmy is getting a pre-transplant infusion. When we get through with this, it's on to the Buckhead Diner for eggs Benedict and an afternoon at the High Museum. We're trying to improve our attitude.
