After 4 years in our current apartment complex, we've decided we are ready to move on. More space is a must!! Lately Jason claims that my scrapbook stuff is taking up space in his "man cave", I think it is the other way around ;-) We also want a larger master bath and at least one and 1/2 or another full bath. Lately I've been wondering how we ever survived in our first place together which was a studio apartment (basically a hotel room with a kitchenet,)
If it hadn't been for my health issues over the past couple years, we would have stayed upstairs. I thought being downstairs would be great so that some of my friends could come visit....wrong!!! They put us in one unit in our building that has 2 steps up to the front door. We got stuck under a couple that fights a lot, and another family that thinks the breezeway in our building is their own personal space. We'd like our own personal space, a yard for a small dog or 2, and our own parking space!!! (Garage or carport) The parking spaces here are not assigned, and some people think it's ok to park over the line.
Speaking of misplaced car parts. Some lady thought it was a good idea to place a shiny metal CAR HOOD on her balcony. The purpose of that wasn't just to get on our nerves I don't think... but every afternoon guess where it shines? She also has a larger breed dog. When we first moved to this unit, I heard her in her old lady southern accent talking to her dog, " GOOO PEEEE!!!" (short pause) "I said, GOOO PEEEE!!!" Jason and I gave her the nic-name "The Go Pee Lady".
Lastly, we are ready to be a 1 to 1 ratio as far as tenant/ landlord goes. I think it's safe to say if someone that owns a house but is renting it out, they'd still like to keep the place more than halfway decent looking. Ever since our favorite landlord here had to leave for medical reasons, this place has gone downhill and has been through about as many managers as years that we've lived here. Is it August 1st yet?
