The new place.
A separate bathroom to lock each cat into when they get out of hand. A walk-in closet. Large storage area. A private entrance. MY OWN WASHER AND DRYER! Is this not beautiful to behold?

I never got my 1099 from the state for my unemployment from last year. I figured they didn’t technically have to be mailed until the last day of January, so I gave the statement until the end of the first week of February to arrive. It didn’t. I tried a couple of times last week…
The soothsayers of precipitation foresaw snow, so last night I set the last of the old wood in the fire place. We had a half-cord delivered yesterday, because we were running low, and while it is nicely cured and ready to burn, last yearâs wood has gone from good to perfect and seems to take…
Tonight I try my hand at making class beads. With my Kreskin-like ESP I sense a bunch of “playing with fire” jokes coming my way. No matter. It’s a five-week course at the local high school, one night a week. It was relatively inexpensive, and it will give me something else to do other than…
The Socialist and I had a talk last night. Evidently I’m always Gloomy Gus anymore, which makes it hard for him to hang around me. He says I never smile, and I seldom see the bright side of things. I wanted to argue with him that it wasn’t true, that I spent a good part…
I think the rush of appointments and tests is finally nearly done with. It’s a good thing, too. This entire process has made me far to self-absorbed for my own good. It’s time to resume just plain living again. I did get a call today from the Transplant Coordinator at Big City Hospital confirming I…
I’m a little lost this weekend. It’s the same old New Year blues that hits me as predictably as the battery on my camera running out just before the cats do something that absolutely needs to be captured for posterity. This time of year is a beach fresh at low tide. The water has gone…
I used to have a friend who would go looking for baby birds every spring then raise them. She could never understand why they would get caught by a cat as soon as she released them. She finally figured it all out and just left them be!

baby bird time, kitten time, and the increase in road kill time. i love spring, and i hate spring at the same time.
The Picture of Dorian Gray, I haven’t seen that movie in so long it would be new to me.
I love old movies. I just rented ”The Quiet Man” (John Wayne, MaureenO’Hara)
”Leave Her to Heaven”
and ”Laura”
*munches popcorn*
VCR…great invention =)
My favorite part: I was wondering why there were other birds behind me, screaming at me too….
Oh I love that movie! I read the book too… very interesting moral to it. Enjoy! Oh and congrats on the apartment!
congratulations on the apartment, sal!! the bird story was oddly amusing. i remember poking a fat bird with a stick as a child because it wasn’t flying or reacting to our presence (though it was alive. seemed to just be chilling) i don’t remember it screaming, though. it might have been in the same situation.
There was a band back home called Dorion Gray.
I can’t remember if they were any good… I’m sure the movie is better! 🙂
I love how you know the name of plants! I need to buy gardening for dummies, if there is such a thing. I feel so inept when people start talking plants.

WOW! I am jealous
it is indeed a beauty to behold! it looks huge! how many sq feet?
WOW! 2 baths too! a dream. enjoy!!
Wow! I’m jealous as hell!
Looks great!
in case you were wondering, no, I didn’t read Shay’s comment before I left mine…
It’s massive! But does it have an automatic garage door opener?
Your own washer and dryer adjacent to the bedroom where most of the laundry comes from….BONUS!!!

~~AWESOME!~~

Awwwww, I would’ve done the same thign your sister did,lol. Poor baby bird!! LoL…
Nice house, looks spacious, big, whoooo!! I cant wait to get a place of my own. Now I know I’ll regret saying that when I do,lol!
Love,Alaina
Wow, look at all that room! The layout looks really nice. Our family of five went from 800 square feet to 1800 sq feet five years ago. It was great to stretch out, only problem was that we did not have enough furniture to spread out with us.
It’s gorgeous!! 😀
That looks like a big apartment!! You’re lucky :).
It is a beautiful thing. I don’t believe I could ever go back to communal laundry. It’s so much easier to toss it in and forget it in the dryer for a day or two….
Your own washer and dryer. One of life’s best luxuries!
