Working On the Apartment

Let's just start by saying we all make mistakes. Was it a mistake for Emily and me to move into an apartment together? NO! Was it a mistake for us to move into THIS apartment? Possibly.

The question of common sense and how others use common sense has arisen often when it comes to the landlord and maintenance staff. I am determined to keep them on task and fix our issues so that the rest of our lease can go smoothly. For example, we moved in at the first of June and now, at the middle of August, my toilet has been fixed, or so they say, four times. I finally convinced them to take the toilet out and do a better investigation. They eventually followed through; low and behold they found an eye shadow compact. Of course they tried to blame that on me but that is another story. I now have a new toilet that works perfectly. Now if I could just get them to fix the other three problems, we would be set. I will let you know when that happens.

I have been working diligently on making the apartment look greater than it is in reality. Whimsical design is what I love for my own space and I have been using samples of materials to make fun art for the apartment. It takes time but maybe by the time the lease is over, I will finally have it the way I want it. Oh well.

until next time :)
