Bedrooms

I was thinking the other day about all the different bedrooms that have been mine over the years. Here's my list, as best I can remember:

1. Whatever room I slept in Michigan, where I was born and spent the first year or so of my life.
2. Whatever room I slept in at our house near Cropley road in San Jose.
3. The room in the house on Country Walk Circle.
4. My first bedroom in the house on Cedarcrest Ln.
5. Same house, second room.
6. My room at Tutu and Papa's house in Honolulu. (4 months)
7. The Missionary Training Center in Provo, UT. (2 months)
8. El Edificio del Tigre, Salina Cruz, Mexico. (2 months)
9. La casa cerca del dique seco, Salina Cruz, Mexico. (1 month)
10. El Barrio de Pueblo Nuevo, Oaxaca, Mexico. (4 months)
12. Tehuantepec, Mexico. (3 months)
13. Pochutla, Mexico. (1 1/2 months)
14. San Juan Guichicovi, Mexico. (1 1/2 months)
15. Barrio Guelaguetza, Mexico. (3 months)
16. Barrio Violetas, Mexico. (1 month)
17. Juchitan, Mexico. (3 months?)
18. Juchitan, Mexico II. (>1 month)
19. Cedarcrest Ln. house, third bedroom. (1 1/2 months)
20. Wyview building 13, Provo. (4 months)
21. Liberty Square, Provo. (4 months)
22. Victoria Place Two apartment #78. (5 1/2 months!)

Those are the bedrooms that have been mine , not just rooms that I have stayed in. How many have you had?

I have been living in #22 for about 5 1/2 months. This is the first time I have lived in the same place for more than four months in a row since I graduated from high school.
