So for the past week I have been sick with another cold. Winter is just getting started and I have already been sick twice. This is very unlike me. Either I am getting it all over with at the start, or this is going to be one hell of a winter. I am already negative in my sick hours. Gavin has missed a few days of school, and now Laura is getting it too. And she is very happy about the situation, trust me. It looks like Jen may have lucked up this time, but with Laura just getting started there is still a huge chance Jen will get it too. I am just about over it tho. I am hoping that by morning I will be feeling pretty much back to normal, aside from coughing up all this crap.
Jen has been looking at different bed frames for when we move, I think we should look at some adjustable beds. That would be sweet. I really need to find a better theme, but I hate them all, and am pretty lazy about the whole page in general.
So I guess it is official we wont need to be looking at any real estate. Jen seems to be super excited about getting that apartment, so that is what we will do. This will give us more time to clean up our credit and work on a down payment, because I really don’t want us to get locked into a huge house payment. After seeing the apartment myself I am pretty excited too. Jen and I have viewed a ton of apartments in the time we have been together, and I always have the same feeling of “It will do” while viewing them. But this one definitely had a WOW effect. All the kitchen appliances are stainless steel and black, and the cabinets looked great. Rather than getting a 3 bedroom, we opted for a 2 bedroom with more square footage, and you can really feel the difference in space. Just the overall feel and look blows away this apartment. I was probly most impressed by the difference in window placement compared to this place. This apartment is so hard to light properly. We usually have 3-4 lamps on in the living room, and it still isn’t really bright enough. I don’t even think there was more than a kitchen light on when we viewed the new place, and the dining area was by the patio door which was just awesome. The only thing I am really worried about is moving in. It has a U shaped staircase when you first come in. It’s going to be hell.
Trying to get a decent looking video setup so I can record anything funny that might happen in the game. The video looked pretty decent until I uploaded it to Youtube. It really killed the quality as you can see. You can hardly even tell what is going on in it. I will have to find a new place to upload for sure, otherwise it’s just not even worth doing.
After Jen coming up with the idea that maybe we should stay in an aparment for a little longer, she started looking for ones that weren’t a rat hole such as this, and managed to find some really nice ones. I don’t think its apartments that I hate so much as it is just this apartment complex. This place is trash. It used to be great, but thanks to the sluts in management it has really gone to hell. I even heard good things about the new place from a coworker. The price is a bit more, but by the time our lease is up we should be out of the insane, gas guzzling , car payment, so it should work out fine. We could always move into some Pigeon Forge cabins or something. That would probly get a bit expensive tho.
