zimenaIt's official: I'M GOING TO MOVE TO MY OWN APARTMENT!!!
After more than two years of flat-hunting, and nine months of paperworks, assessments, rejections, written complaints and endless amounts of waiting in between all those things, it's finally decided:
The council have decided to take my health situation into account, and allow me to move to a wheelchair-accessible flat on my own. In effect, this means that I will pay my rent to the council, instead of having to find an accessible flat on my own (as we all know, this has been a pretty hard task!).
I still don't know exactly what the flat will be like, or even exactly where it is - there are a few possible buildings that I know of. I have, however, mentioned which one I'd prefer (both because it's close to the town centre, and because it's the most conveniently accessible one), and when I got the message about my application being granted today, the lady who called also said that she was aware of my preferences, so it seems positive, at least...
But, right now, the most important thing is that I know I'm going to be able to move to my own place. Even though I won't know any definite info about the actual apartment until about three weeks from now, they said I could start preparing the move already now, as it could happen soon after getting the definite info.
I'm still a bit speechless and shocked, and I don't even know where to start with packing my stuff or even choosing what kind of stuff HAS TO come with me to the new place immediately, but most likely the next few weeks will be madly busy and crazy.
