As excited as we were for buying a house
and leaving the trashy neighbors
who not only let their kiddos play in the parking lot
but have the audacity to defend their parking lot playing rights
Seriously, if someone in a motorized vehicle is yelling at your kids to get out of the way
maybe you should too
instead of declaring, how dare you yell at my children?!?!
And having a space to make our own
goodbye faux wood trim that's really made of plastic
goodbye linoleum that has been super glued to the floor (with not so super glue)
goodbye condo association that hates nature
love my dusty miller plant that over wintered for 3 straight years
who cares if you're a bit gangly at the edges
and of course I dug up a bit to bring to our home
We took a moment to say goodbye to our first place
where we fought
over dishes, and vacuuming and a certain someone's ridiculously busy winter schedule
where we dreamed
of awesome vacations and future homes and our lives together
where we settled into ourselves and our relationship
Closing a chapter in our lives
Goodbye Apartment
Helloooooo awesome new house!
Michael and I were just talking about how we will miss the apartment a little bit... but your new house is so great!
