Lotsa Stuff Goin' On
Well, out apartment search proved to be fruitful! On Saturday, Chris and I went out apartment hunting. The first place we went to was pretty, but too cramped. We'd be paying more for less space. The second place was right accross the street, and managed by the same folks, so we passed. The third place was cheap, but a total dive. Plus, it was located right accross the street from an elementary school, meaning kids kids kids everywhere. The last place was IT. It's beautiful, quiet, and friggin' huge. 1050 sq. feet, central air & heat, large living room, dining room, kitchen with a walk-in pantry, garbage disposal, dishwasher and the same amount of counter space that I currently have. The bathroom has the cool newly furbished tub and shower fiberglass frame (no more ceramic tile and rotting grout) and it is twice the size of our current bathroom. The master bedroom has a huge walk-in closet. We can get a sattelite dish if we want (not allowed where we are right now) and the tennis court actually has a net! The carpet is very deep and plush; it reminds me of the carpet I used to have in my bedroom as a kid. The great part? It's only $45 more per month than what we have now, and there is no pet fee for Taboo! The ink is still drying on our security deposit check that Chris is turning in today. I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy! We're leaving the ghetto!

Sunday was my Father-In-Law's 72nd birthday. We gave Rich a card and a $30 gift certificate to Amazon.com. (Now, he can share in our addiction to Amazon.com. I positivly adore that place. It has changed my mind on ordering stuff online. I used to be paranoid of buying stuff online, then we got a gift certificate ourselves. The rest is history!) We had cake & ice cream and grinders. If you've never had a grinder, I highly suggest one. They are subs on toasted bread, and they rock my world. Everyone had a great time. I love my In-Laws. I really got lucky when I married into such a great family.

We are officially moved into the 4th floor here at work. Our office is beautiful, however, the view sucks compared to what we had. But oh well, what's done is done, and bitchin' isn't going to get us back up on 56. There was a lot of "housework" involved in getting this place back up and running, but things seem to be going swimmingly at this time. We'll see what goes on as life continues...
