We really like the town that we are living in. It's just beautiful with lots of green, which I've been longing for, for a while. The commute for Wolfgang for work is a little long, but he finds it worth it, for where we live (so far). I just might share pictures of our place, after it's a little more under control. Although I am pleased to say that minus 2 or 3 boxes, we are completely unpacked. I am unemployed and childless and petless after all, so it's not all that hard to tackle it, even if it is kinda a pain.
Actually, I do have a couple of pictures to share. Here are some pictures of one awesome perk of our new place, the wrap around patio! And a great view.
Sorry, not the best quality of pictures, but it gives you an idea. The first picture is of the windows from the dinning area, looking out to the patio.
Another perk about our place, is that we have a one car garage. A GARAGE! How cool is that? That was definitely a selling feature, because this place is the same price as other rentals we liked, however other places would charge us up to $150 per month for parking. whaaat? No thanks.
Ok, so maybe this post isn't as exciting for you as it is for me, but I do have to share one more thing. The landlord gave us an option for furnished (= more per month) vs. unfurnished. We obviously picked unfurnished, because we shipped all of our stuff. The day before we moved in, he called and asked if we wanted him to keep the tv (nice, flat screen, 42" ish) in the apartment. We told him no thanks, because he would charge us to keep it on a monthly basis. Later that day we go to get the keys from him, and guess what? He kept the tv there, AND patio furniture, for free! We totally scored on his laziness. We were definitely appreciative. It's kinda weird having a tv now, but we like it. I'm like a 40 yr old woman, and I (we) LOVE the HGTV channel.
Anyway, I wanted to share more in this post, but there has been enough words for now.
Come visit us!
