    Andy and I got a new place!

    It's not a house (which we're saving for), but Andy and I just signed the lease to a two bedroom apartment that is in the same complex that I'm currently at.

    Kia got to tour the place already (and rolled on the carpets ). Zam and Logan know something is up, but are surprisingly calm, despite odd looks at all the boxes around my place.

    Andy and I are already bickering about what goes where. Ah the joys of having a roommate that's also your soon to be husband.

    The carpet is being cleaned today and we can start moving our stuff in on Wednesday. Hopefully we'll be fully moved in by Monday.

    And without further ado, some photos:

    Standing in front of the door. Living room to the right; dining room and kitchen to the left. Down the hall, first bedroom to the right; main bathroom to the left. Second bedroom at the end of the hall with second attached bathroom.


    Living room with fireplace and sliding door to fenced in patio.

    Main Bath


    Washer and Dryer in alcove in Main Bath



    Second bathroom off Second Bedroom


    And that's it! It feels huge right now, being empty and being larger than the apartment I've lived in for 3 years, but I'm sure it'll feel small and homey in no time.

    Hopefully Kia, Zam, and Logan will love it.

    The cats now have window sills! *laughs*

    Looks great - ooooh, will the kitties be allowed balcony access? Glad Kia already rolled on the carpets - an important part of the inspection process!

    Supervised. We're on the first floor so I don't have to worry about them falling from any heights. But what I really love is that it's indoor entry, so I don't have to worry about Zam escaping anymore when I come home with my hands full.

    And the woman living there before us left a very pretty flower stand on the patio.

    Flower stand or feline stand? Was that a typo?

    It's really quite nice! No apartment I ever lived in had a washer and dryer right in the unit. The best arrangement I ever had was to schlep it down one floor to the shared laundry room with other apartments. Most places it was all the way to the laundromat. And two (count 'em) bathrooms and a fireplace! Nope, never had that either.
