Illinois Rental

We are in Illinois now and staying with my grandma. We are slowly settling in, it doesn't feel real yet, I feel like I'm visiting but I'm sure it will feel real when we move into the rental.  I was told to expect 3-6 weeks for our belongings to arrive from Alaska. My grandma loves having us but it's tight quarters, and the cat is at the rental alone, so I'm seriously considering moving in before my stuff arrives. Anyway, the rental was built in 1995 I think, it's has 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and an unfinished basement. The walls are white, the carpet is white, and the fixtures are builders grade brass, all which I can't stand but I'm not about to invest any money in a house that I do not own so I will just have to live with it the way it is!
