Apartment Living

Last week I helped my brother move out of his house so that he could move into a new apartment. Currently, my mom and my uncle are staying with me in my one bedroom apartment. Things have been a little tight but we are making the best of it. Laundry detergent finishes much faster and I have to get used to cooking for multiple people again. I can't even watch what I want to watch because I do not have the use of the DVR right now.

Finally posting

Sorry about not posting for a little while. Damn application filter at work! :-( Anyway alot has happened to me ever since my last post. The biggest thing is that I am in a new relationship. :-) :-) :-) I am completely over the moon whenever I am with William.

Settling In

I am starting to feel a bit more comfortable in my apartment. Live With Kelly and Michael and other things are part of my morning routine now. It has been like this for many years. However, I have been trying to follow the FlyLady daily missions. This week it is the mission for the master bedroom. I will try to see if I could follow today's mission.

I was looking through the Red Plum coupons earlier this morning and found some coupons for Dunkin Donuts. There were many coupons in the packet that I could use. I even have a coupon for Uncle Ben's Ready Rice that I could use. Anyway, mashed potatoes and barbecue chicken for dinner tonight.

guests

My mom and I visited Ashley Furniture Home Store today to look for some furniture. I am happy to report that I found what I was looking for. :-)

Having a guest made me realize that I was missing some things, for example, a large pot to cook spaghetti in. Anyway, I will make up a Christmas list with all the stuff that I need.

websites

I absolutely love Craigs List. I saw an ad for a beautiful Queen sized bedroom set. I just need to call the person that put the ad. Another great website to look for furniture is Ebay.

dresser

I pretty much think that the girl that lives underneath my apartment is tired of hearing me putting my bag on the floor so it is time for me to finally get a dresser. I went to Big Lots to shop for a dresser today and found a nice dresser for over $400. However, I am waiting to go to the website to get approval for financing.

Window curtains

I went on a trip to Target this morning to find the perfect curtains for my bedroom windows. I had to choose between an 84" or a 52". The 52" is more fit for my bedroom windows. Target also has some great colorful sheets, but I did not go there for sheets.

OMG! I discovered something today. Google shopping! I put a bookcase, end tables, nightstand, and dresser on my shortlist. :-)
