So my Mom was feeling uneasy about having people she doesn't know in the basement. I told her I was willing to pay $500/mo rent starting in Oct (due to new pay periods), and would pay $300/mo towards my dad's old bike & shoes. So that puts me here though Christmas, which I think will be a good thing anyway, and I'll still be able to prepare to buy a house.
Before I move down I need to run another network cable, and tv cable. Hopefully I can do that this weekend.
