It’s been a crazy ride, but we have an apartment. Sorry that this blog hasn’t been updated in a couple weeks; we had nothing good to report on that was solidified. We love our apartment. The layout is little awkward, but we like it since we don’t cook in the same room we sleep, and a hallway separates each room. We have a small walk-in closet, a linen closet, bathroom, kitchen, and living room—in that order counter-clockwise. We’ve begun to make this space home by hanging pictures, a full-length mirror, and a white board calendar. We are currently sleeping on an air mattress, which stinks but way better than sofas or anything else we can afford right now. Josh, Claire, and Dave were great for letting stay at their place for the week and a half while we were apartment hunting.
The apartment is two blocks away from Prospect Park, if you don’t know anything about the park I suggest you google it for pictures since I don’t have any to post and it’s a gorgeous area. Downstairs, there are two grocery stores, a Chinese restaurant, a Starbucks, a pizzeria, and a bookstore, just to name a few things that are within a block. The subway is five blocks away, which is extremely close and means that Manhattan is only a ten or fifteen minutes ride. The Laundromat is two blocks down, and it takes a small fortune to wash all of our clothes.
I am going to post pictures from Washington D.C. and of the apartment prior to us moving. We are not quite ready to show you what the place looks like with all of the furnishings and whatnot, but it shouldn’t be that much longer for this place to have a complete makeover. I hope everyone back home is doing well. We miss you very much.
