We got the keys yesterday. Whee!
Celebrated by taking myself out to lunch and then went shopping at the discount store just down the road called Tuesday Morning. I don't need a store that neat right in my neighborhood. It's like "danger Will Robinson", big time. So of course I bought stuff. *g*
Poked my head into several store fronts. Dropped into one in which the woman was hungry for sales and bored spitless. I was lucky to get out with my sanity. I mean, the woman could talk.
There was a store just down from her where they make their own candles. Lovely scents that aren't horribly overpowering. I may become a candle person after all. I still can't get over just how nice it all is. I'm so glad I dug my heels in about the place. I think it will be just the startover we needed.
We took the MIL there tonight and showed her all around; the laundry room, meeting room, showed where they have the guest apartments that can be rented at $45 a night, the garage we're on the waiting list to get a space for, the very noce lobby that has a door man looking after the place. And of course there was the condo itself. It was gratifying to see her eyes grow wide when we kept opening closet after closet. We'll put it this way, my parent's house doesn't have as many closets and it's a three bedroom place.
So, excited again. *squee* I want to be moved in now please. Will someone wave their magic wand? Unless your name is Ron Weasely...
