For about 6 months, I posted on another blog. This a post that was copied from that blog. I used different names for the family. Just so you know the names were as follows:
Prince Charming - Wandering Aengus
Princess Belle - Lilly
Princess Magpie - Rose
Princess Snifflefritz - Lotus
Little Prince - Reed
I will admit that this apartment wasn’t all I had hoped it would be
when I got here. There were quite a few repairs that needed to be
done. I walked into the kitchen and it HAD NO FAUCET!!! There no
fuses, the bathroom HAD NO DOOR!!! and most of the doors had no knobs,
to name a few of the problems. Well, we were here, our stuff was in the
rooms and so we made a list of all the repairs and brought it to the
super. Surprisingly, within 24 hours all of the repairs were done.
Well, I think we are still waiting on the arrival of one doorknob and a
light fixture is being repaired, but other than that, the place is all
fixed. As quick as that. The place is MUCH bigger than our old place.
The closets are bigger, the rooms are bigger, there is a storage room
and a walk-in linen closet. There is so much potential in this place
and I am free to fix it how I want to. You take your chances when you
rent a place from 1400 miles away so that you can’t actually see it. So
rather than focus on the negatives, I focused on the positives. They
are quick to make repairs, the apartment is huge and I really like the
location. I think that if you come back a fe months from now, you would
be shocked to see just how fabulous this place is going to be. (If you
get over the fact that you have to lug your groceries up THREE flights
of stairs. LOL)
On a sidenote, poor little 3 year old Rose keeps asking when we are
going home. She likes the largeness of the new place, but she just
doesn’t feel like this is her home yet.
