home sweet home

We finally found a place to live! Although it's a bit smaller than our current apartment, it's still pretty nice, and the kitchen is twice the size of my own. And our rent only increases by 5$. Really, that's kind of sad since we're going to a basement and we've had the entire upstairs of a house, but since our rent has never increased in the 3 years we've lived here, it's to be expected. Anyway, here's a picture.


Look familiar? It should! We're moving to the basement! And as much as I would like to dislike the new owners (our new landlords and upstairs neighbors), they're so dang likable. And they both speak German, so when I have questions on my homework I can come up and ask. And they're not making us pay a deposit. And I still get to eat my garden. And I only have to move my stuff a few dozen feet.

I know, it's kind of weird, but oh, so very convenient.

Well, I'm glad things worked out. I like that basement apartment.

And how nice will it be to just throw everything down stairs?

Crazy! That's awesome though that you only have to move downstairs. So did John finally sell all the houses or just yours?

ixoj said...

Kira- he sold our house and the one you lived in (his daughter bought that one)

I was just thinking....basements means spiders. We all know you love spiders. How are you going to cope with this?
