Some apartments are just whack!<BR/><BR/>Our apartment is okay, but there are things about it that I hate, like the kitchen linoleum that is cracking at the edges, and the regular spiders, and the location. Sirens go by our house probably 5-10 times a day. It's insane. Plus, we live right by a Napa store with bars on the windows. Hahaha!! Oh, and there's the homeless people who walk by our front door all the time in order to pick through our garbage cans next to the laundry room. Sigh. I just tell myself that we'll leave in another year, and until then I bite my tongue. :-)Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17684571923138041077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500517359672251994.post-23265148039770080642009-02-07T07:10:00.000-07:002009-02-07T07:10:00.000-07:00Yeah... my current apartment is a lot like Megan's...Yeah... my current apartment is a lot like Megan's. It's 485 square feet, two tiny bedrooms, and the stove/fridge/etc. are apartment originals from the 1960's. I have to guess what temperature my oven is being preheated to, because there are no numbers on the dial. It's gross and disgusting and makes Wymount look just like you said - a palace. But it's dirt cheap and has a great community (families of grad students) so I try not to complain. But yeah. It sucks. A lot. <BR/><BR/>I'm so sorry. :( I wish I could say that, after a year and a half, I've learned to love it... but I can't. :(Liz Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07549586800620411712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500517359672251994.post-33365226636498695112009-02-06T20:48:00.000-07:002009-02-06T20:48:00.000-07:00Sure I'd be happy to help you move when you find a...Sure I'd be happy to help you move when you find a place...what? It's already found and moved into. Why didn't I get a come-help-me-move call? I thought we had moved to that level in our relationship. I guess not. Maybe a DTR is in order. <BR/>PS.

I like that you are "channeling your inner Megan." I hope that works for you. And at least you have your husband home safe and sound and a beautiful little girl you get to see daily. So...there you go. That's me being positive. ;) (From Kendra, not Miles, but I can't figure out my freaking password!)Mileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12595201148155071299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500517359672251994.post-7705802221232444362009-02-06T18:30:00.000-07:002009-02-06T18:30:00.000-07:00Oh the joys of apartment and basement living!!!! ...Oh the joys of apartment and basement living!!!! I sorry girl!!!! It's so hard, especially with a little one! At least you won't be stuck in the basement for the entire winter- THAT can get VERY depressing! You are sort of like newlyweds again, so maybe you VTing Megan a long time ago was so that you would be appreciative and grateful for your place? Maybe? Just think at what "wonderful" memories and stories you'll be able to tell your children...."Well, your dad and I lived in a worse place when you were little......."Mindy Burnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18288078813236566088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8500517359672251994.post-70265135652882227382009-02-06T18:13:00.000-07:002009-02-06T18:13:00.000-07:00Ugh!

Thank goodness you won't be living there long and most of those couples don't! But seriously -- how is that BYU approved?Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03095104147841657129noreply@blogger.com
