The New apartment..

A little about the place first... It's a five bedroom house. 4 upstairs and 1 downstairs. I have the bedroom downstairs. The only that that sucks is that there's only 1 bathroom. Other than that it's a great place. You can see by the pics where there were some touch ups and where some touch ups need to be done but other than that just some TLC and it'll be great. The cable is coming sometime next week to get setup and we'll have cable in all five bedrooms including HD and DVR in the living room and HD in a second living room in the basement.

Ok so I'm starting with my bedroom. It's a little smaller width wise but is longer than the rest.


Don't worry I've already changed the curtains and I think I'm gonna have to buy some new blinds and some stuff to go up on the walls..


This is one side of the kitchen. There's so much more counter space than the old apartment. Which means the microwave, crock pot, rice cooker, and electric skillet don't have to go on top of the fridge. Let's also not forget the coffee pot and the toaster oven.


I like to two pictures they had hanging up on the wall when we moved in. They may just stay up.



This is the gi-normous dining room. To the left you can see an indent which could make it an excellent place for a desk but the dining room itself is huge. There's a shelf that goes around the room and behind that wall is my room. I wasn't an original room, obviously, I think it was a porch type deal. But hey, it worked out for me.


Yes the chimney part has to be re-painted but the shelf space on either side is great.


For the indent part in this room which I believe will be our living room, my roommate just bought us a 52 inch projection TV. The TV that we have in our living room now which I think is a 37 in flat-screen will go in the basement for out second living room. There's also a little closet in there near the door.


stained glass that you can see better in the next pic.


Flowers or pictures on the landing??


First 2 bedrooms on the left.


2nd 2 bedrooms on the right. The orangy room has the access to the attic. One of those cool pull the string ones and the stairs come flying down at you. And that's the bathroom to the far left.


Some of those bulbs need to be replaced but that can't be too difficult.


There's the treadmill and stair stepper I just bought. To the left of that will be my bench and to the right of all of it.. hopefully will go an exercise bike. I've tested out the both and almost fell off the treadmill when it shifted on me. I gotta put something in front of the wheels but it's the best spot only cuz I'm five eleven, and I'm too tall to put it anywhere else in the basement. 2 feet to the right and my head was hitting a pipe.


This is where the second living room is gonna go. That TV's gotta go and that table can be moved. There's gonna be an area carpet go to down on the floor and more furniture.

So all in all it's a great place. $1200 a month and everything split 5 ways. With utilities I'm lookin at about 300 to 350 a month which is not at all bad for an entire house. I'm excited and I've been moving stuff yesterday and today. Saturday is the official day the big stuff is getting moved and we'll officially be IN.
