We moved out of our house the first week of June. Tim and I have done many messy renovation projects while living in the dust. But, we figured that we shouldn’t do that to our toddler, Ty. I looked at a lot of houses nearby, but most wouldn’t give me a short term lease. We decided to rent a “new” apartment in a brand new complex next to the light rail station a few miles from our house.
Everything is new and shiny. It’s almost the exact same price that my new second mortgage will be after we finish the project, so I get to practice being broke. The complex seems to be targeted to 20 somethings. We definitely are the only “adults” in the building. We feel like we’re at the “hotel” for 6 months. It’s nice, but I think I’ll be glad to get back into our HOME in the fall.
The best part about here? It’s the Ms. Pac Man machine in the community room!
