Gettin' Comfy In My New Place!

I love my new apartment.

Sure, it smells like gas right now, since the gas water heater is leaking (and the landlord is going to replace it), but it is in a neighborhood that I love and has a real, honest-to-goodness kitchen. After using a cutting board for a counter for the past two years, I don't know what to do with all the space! And so many cabinets and kitchen drawers! I finally have places to put stuff!

I have an actual living room/office and am soon getting a love seat. My good friend, Angela, gave me a TV with a DVD player that somebody just left, in her building. I have free basic cable TV AND cable internet! My bedroom is calm and soothing and has a good-sized closet. My bathroom doesn't have a tub but has a double-sized shower. And, the place is pretty!

And, best of all, I have my OWN washer and dryer!! And, the water heater is only used by me. Plus, the washer and dryer is in a storage room where I can put more stuff!

I walk outside and I see a glorious view of the city. I'm just a block away from the Burke-Gillman Trail and 2 and 1/2 blocks from Lake Union, the urban lake. I am within walking distance to a really cool coffee shop/cafe/bakery.

I love Wallingford and am thrilled to live here!
