We're moving!!!

Our current apartment

Our new apartment


Reasons why we are excited to move:
- The new apartment is about 3-4 times the size of our current apartment!
- No more litter-strewn streets 5 minutes after the street cleaner goes by because people don't feel the need to use trash cans
- No more finding empty liquor bottles on our front steps
- We won't be awakened at 2:30 in the morning by people screaming "F-- You" anymore.
- No more having to ask total strangers to move off our front steps so we can get into our apartment
- No more worrying about finding parking during snow emergencies
- No more sitting in my room on a Sunday afternoon trying to read the Ensign while my neighbor has rap music blasting from his car stereo that is so loud it sounds as if his car is actually in my living room
- No more doing dishes by hand, the new apartment has a dishwasher!

Reasons why we are sad to move:
- Leaving the best landlord we have ever had (she would let us use her apartment when she was gone, she would even babysit for us!)
- Our backyard garden will have just have started producing veggies!

Oh, and you didn't tell me you had an Etsy shop, I love Etsy!

Me again, I guess it's not your Etsy shop, but I knew you made baby hair clips and I saw it was in New York...

Seems like the bad outweighs the good here. So GREAT that you are moving! And don't have to listen rap or someone yelling the F word. Also, yay for the new dishwasher. I wash the dishes by hand too, and gotta say.. not loving it.
