This weekend we had the carpet removed and new flooring installed, so we were finally unable to unpack the rest of the stuff. I thought I’d share how the new apartment looks so far.

This is the living room. It’s really huge. The boxes belong to John, he hasn’t fully unpacked yet.

Here’s the kitchen.

My room, aka “office,” starting with the bathroom. I didn’t take a picture of the bedroom because it’s messy. And unexciting.

Lots of storage space. The only negative is that there’s really not enough natural light because the patio outside is entirely shaded. I only have one lamp right now, but I’ll need to get another.

Here’s the backyard. So far I’ve planted a little cherry tree and a blackberry bush, but I’ve also got a blueberry bush and a raspberry bush to plant.

This is the side of the yard. It’s huge for an apartment.

Eight different herbs.

This is my new patio furniture, I got it this weekend at Pier 1.

And Molly, enjoying the floors.
