The New Digs

Here I am, keeping up my blog!The only problem is that I am getting married on Saturday and there are a whole lot of things that are more pressing than than throwing my two cents into the blogosphere today. And yet here I am.

Dave and I got the keys to our apartment this week. It is a little studio apartment in a house that was built in 1900. It has quite a lot of character. The layout is not ideal, but for what we're paying it is great. We live just off the main street, which is beautiful, but our neighborhood is a little questionable. Again, we are poor poor newlyweds and this will afford us MANY hilarious stories and wonderful memories, but I just will die if Dave ever leaves me home alone at night. Seriously. I might be killed. The hallway leading to our front door always seems to have an interesting smell. I can't quite put my finger on what it is. Fortunately I got a scentsy warmer for my bridal shower, so our abode smells clean, welcoming, and is quite the relief after walking through the hallway. I think beyond any other issue that may present itself, the largest one is that of the microwave. There is absolutely no room in this place for a microwave. We are thinking of putting up some shelving, so hopefully that will solve the problem. If not, we will have to actually PREPARE our food. Every time! No leftovers, no easy mac, no nachos. What's a college student to do??

The moral of the story is that I love my little apartment, and I am so excited to watch it transform into a little home. As soon as we get settled in you can expect an invitation to dinner at the manor.
