Coming along slowly...

Little by little my apartment is coming together. I thought it would be weird being in a totally different place, but it feels pretty comfortable here. It helps that I still wake up in my same bed and have my coffee from the same pot. Plus it's warm. I've been here 4 days now and have not used my heater at all. Which is a good thing because I have a bunch of stuff sitting in front of it.

Here's my little kitchen. It's small but mostly functional.

My bathroom is coming along as well but I'm having some storage issues with it. Nothing fits under the sink because of the plumbing in the cabinet. I'm looking at getting one of those shelving systems that fit over the toilet but the leg of it can't be more than an inch in diameter or it won't fit. I saw one at Bed Bath and Beyond as well as one at IKEA (biggest IKEA I have ever seen...got lost in the parking structure). Now I've got to go back and look at the legs. It might work.

Still working on my bedroom, so there's a bunch of stuff stacked on my dresser and the chaise lounge. I'll post pics when that gets all cleared up.

It's fairly quiet around here, especially considering I'm wedged between several major streets. There are however, two feral cats that howl long into the night. I'm almost tempted to bring them in and have them neutered/spayed myself. I also see that the neighbor has been feeding them. Insert frowny face here.

Also, it is daylight in my house 24/7. 1 am (which I have seen a lot of lately) looks exactly like 8 am and noon, and 4 pm. It's a little disconcerting. It's good in that my complex is incredibly well lit. Daylight all the time. Bad in that I'm so out of tune with what time it is. I think the neighbor on the other side of my bedroom either goes to work or gets home from work at 1 am.Three nights in a row now someone is moving around in there between 1 am and 2:30 am. Not especially loud, but definitely moving around.

Went to an awesome car wash yesterday. I was going to try to find a do-it-yourself one but by then I was pretty low on patience. I drive by one that said it was $8 for exterior only and I'd be in and out in 5 minutes. 5 minutes? Sweet, I got 5 minutes! Best $8 I've ever spent.
