Word.

The beautiful hardwood floors dwontown that I was raving about, remember those?!  Well they will look even better with our foot prints on them, because the apartment is ours!  Well as much as a rented.space can be yours, and btw totally joking about footprints on the hardwood Ter!  I had a quiet weekend with Wes up in the mountains with his Dad, and me cooped up with my thoughts.  And I definitely thought about every possible positive and negative thing associated with an old house.  I thought about all the things that make me love old homes, like: the character, and the unique windows, slanted ceilings and clawfoot tubs.  Ooh yeah, and the harwood floors.  And then I ventured to the side of possible problemos, like "what if the funky smell never quite goes away and all my collegues think I smell like a basement?" and black mold, etc?  So let me tell you, my mind wondered.  But I found myself comforted by knowing that its the corky things that make old house so great; and also a nice old man at Lowes who gave me a black mold lesson.  So we find ourselves the renters (in one month) of the 3rd floor, 7th door wonder.  Shes nice, and quite welcoming and answers to the name Jane.

  1. I am so excited about this for you and Wes! (minus the footprints on the hard wood floors, that is ;) You are going to do a great job making it your own, and I think it will really suit you. Plus, if the quirky things become uncomfortable things, you can move again! Can't wait to see it!
