Back in the Apartments Again

Five things I can do without while living in an apartment:
5. Computer on the floor in between the TV and the kitchen table
4. Only 3 cupboards in the kitchen resulting in 2 of Dan's metal shelving systems from work that now belong to us in our kitchen/TV/office/playroom
3. No lawn to mow or flowers to look at
2. Comments from children (this one is from Daradie) like, "We don't have to do chores. This isn't our real house." To her surprise dusting only 3 pieces of furniture and vacuuming three rooms is not hard at all.
1. Earwigs everywhere! It's cherry pickin' time and they're been forced to relocate. They are in cracker boxes, fruit bowl on the table, in my scriptures (would that make them bookworms instead?), in the dishrag, under towels on the rack--everywhere! Nothing is left out and everything is now protected in tupperware. Gross! Gross! Gross!

We sold our home and now hunkering down in an apartment. We start on our house in the next month.

Angilee, I miss you! Could you just come back & forget the whole new-house thing? The Negrette's house is for sale..... Anyhow, I feel awful I didn't even get to say goodbye to you since I was gone when you moved & Julie canceled our VT thing. Let's get together soon! Hope all is well -- besides the earwigs & things you could do without... :)
