The Place

Well, i've been moved in to the new place for 9 days now, so i figured it was time to get some pictures up here so you can all see where i live/we will live. So here they are. I just took them.

This is the exterior of the townhouse (left). Oooh, aaahh.... Not that exciting...moving on.
Below you'll see a picture of some cool mirrors that came with the place. Gotta love Ikea.














Next you'll see our lovely and spacious living room. Unfortunately we have no furniture. Just those two cool green chairs and the table Kristin painted. Apparently we have a fireplace! We'll find out soon if it is usable though. It's full of insulation at the moment. Note the naked Christmas tree in the corner. Our first Christmas tree! Also note Fran's lovely wreath.
To the right of the living room you'll find the dining room. This is home to my computer as well. Also you'll see our poor sick fishes. Sadly four fish have died this week (A guppy, two danios, and a betta). The causes of death are yet to be determined, though it may have to do with the introduction of new guppies or the fact that the water has turned a lovely greenish color. Mmm Mmm good.

Moving on, here's the deck, off of the dining room. Soon to be (in the summer) home of dinners in the sun, etc. It's nice and big, and currently a bit of a mess, snow, empty liquor containers (not ours). We do have a lovely patio set and umbrella, and a barbecue!

Next is the kitchen. A little small, but it serves its purpose and has already been the source of a few culinary creations. It has a dishwasher!


and to the right of the kitchen, the pantry/laundry room. Complete with washer and dryer and DEEP FREEZE!
Now, before we go upstairs, there is one thing that i have to point out. It is one of my favorite things about this place. Check out these sweet stairs.

That's right, they're just hanging there! it's cool, it almost opens up the whole area. There are two sets, up and around and up to the top floor. Pretty sweet. Now here is the Master Bedroom. For some reason i just could not get a really good picture of this room. Also, i chose to take the picture on the day i am doing laundry and the sheets are off. Now you all get to see the horrible support i get when i sleep.

That's right folks, a foamie on a box spring! And I wonder why my back hurts. Pssh...

Off of the Master Bedroom used to be a small deck. Like many of the townhouses in this complex, it has been turned into a sun room of sorts. I use it for my workshop. It's nice and cool in the winter, hopefully not too hot in the summer, though something tells me i might cook in there in mid july. This picture has been censored because i am building Christmas gifts in here and the people i build Christmas gifts for may very well be reading this post. In fact i know of at least one or two that will read it for sure *cough*JUSTIN & LIZ*cough*MOM &DAD*cough* Excuse me.
And of course, who could forget the bathroom! Not much to describe here. The lino is kind of gross, but it is being replaced sometime.
And last and most certainly least (right now anyways) is the spare bedroom. Right now it is full of boxes and hidden Christmas gifts. Soon it will be home to my bad bed and a place for people to sleep if they happen to be passing through.
Well, this concludes the tour of Ian & Kristin's new place. Please remember to check under your seats for any belongings, exit to the left and don't forget to visit our giftshop! Thanks for coming!
