Good News and Bad News

The good news is that I moved from the hotel to the new apartment (301) this morning. I love it. It is as great as I remembered. I will post pictures when I get my stuff delivered, maybe next week.

The apartment has very high ceilings. It has large windows in the living room and each of the bedrooms. I have lots of stuff I have never had before. I have a dining room table that seats 8.
(!) I have wine glasses and 4 pots and lots of plates and stuff. I have a toaster. I have serving dishes. It is all nuts. The apartment has lots of vases and some sort-of weird art.

I have a walk in closet. I have 2 bathrooms and a washer dryer. I have a window box outside of one of my windows. Lynn, any suggestions for the box? It gets direct sun at least some of the day. Ideally some birds will nest there so I can watch them because I miss my pigeons. Drew, how are the pigeons? I hope you are checking on them regularly and monitoring their progress.

The bad news is that the electricity hasn’t been turned on yet, which is a bit of a let down. I’m hoping this is resolved soon. Without it, thoroughly modernly outfitted apartment seems very 1800s.

Janet, I can't wait to see the photos. I'm sure they have all grown more than I can imagine.

Amy, I AM itching for visitors. Let me know when you are coming. :)

Matthew, do I have to use them for cooking? What if I used them as storage. Or as a step to reach things on a high shelf?

Nahkia! Thanks so much for checking on me! Tell Andre I said hello. I am all ready for you two to come visit whenever you are. He can set up some adventure racing in Melbourne.

Lynn, you are going to have to be a lot more specific than that. What is a succulent? That sounds like a dessert. Can you send me a photo?
