pros and cons

the pros of our new apartment:
cold air con that actually cools the entire space
pool
gated parking
interior facing apartments with a locked courtyard
wood floors
marble countertops
walking distance to work and target and payless and cvs and food places
a vanity
lots of nice families in our complex

the cons:
shallow kitchen sinks
really strange shower issues
short shower head (easily solved by installing on of those handheld shower thingies that ive always been inexplicably obsessed with)
constant temperature fluctuations from freezing to scalding that are not dependent on us turning on the sink or flushing the toilet which means we have no control over them
mirrored closet doors (have never liked them but they do make our place look a little bigger)

i thought i would hate having a studio but so far so good. we miss our balcony and grill and garden but the dronens took a lot of our plants and she will love them too. we sold our stove and grill to the guy who lives downstairs from our old apt so we dont have to move them which is really nice.

obviously the pros outweigh the cons. when we finaly hang our pictures and put a few more things away (three day weekend anyone?) i will post before during and after pictures because i know you guys are all dying to know what it looks like.
