ode to M201 on our one week anniversary

Dear new apartment,

we know you never thought you had a chance

winning our affection seemed impossible

and only one week in

you have almost won us over

with your

pool

hot tub

sauna

beautiful fireplace

and mantle seemingly made for our nativity

yes it helps that

you have been decorated

for

our favorite season

yet, there is something about you

is it that we are all forced to be closer together?

is it that we never needed more space?

is it that we are finally doing the things we feel are most important?

or is it simply that you are very easy to clean?

for all the reason above & many more we are sure

that our year here while waiting for home ownership will be

just as delightful

as any we have had before

thank you

thank you

thank you

for being so accommodating, warm, and lovely

Funny Monday

9 & 1/2 hours into a

13 hour drive home

1 am

middle of

NoWHERE

we

got a flat

yup

FLAT TIRE

not unexpected

earlier

we had tried to change it

because it wasn't holding air

but it wouldn't come off

so we filled it

and hoped

it wouldn't pop

at

1 am

shucks

the MR

bundled in every coat we could find

spent uuuuuu

about an hour

until he finally gave up trying to get the tire off

then drove it off ( carefully )

funny ?

maybe someday
