Holy Christ!! (Pardon all!) That's lovely!!!Originally Posted by Nebula11
....So we found a place......
Its absolutly georgeous......Its still in salem...however its on a dead-end off of a dead-end of a really abscure street....so its super quite and safe.........
Its pricey...being 1500$ a month...(which isnt nessesarily pricey for around here...but its more than john and I have ever paid....we pay 800$ for the ****hole we live in now)
However...that 1500 not only gives us this georgeous 2br apartment with a dining room, porch, and pantry........but it also includes.....
Electric
Heat
Hotwater
Central Air....( drool)
Direct TV w/ all movie channels
A brand new washer and dryer, that the landlord is purchasing for us
Yeah I know...OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its sooo freeekin beautiful........And it looks like an "Adult" apartment...Rather than the "Practically homeless college-student dumps" we have lived in previously...........
This place has 13 windows.....yup thats right...13 FREEEKIN windows
The landlords live on site and are really freekin cool
We have the whole 2nd floor
there is a georgeous fenced in back yard
All hard word floors and brand new lenoleum..(cats are soo funny on hard wood and lenoleum...)
And not only do we get all that stuff included, but the landlords said its cool if we pay the fisr last and security over time, because as they said it "We've been there...we understand"
eeeeeeek
So we have filled out the application....we just chatted with the landlords (husband and wife) for like two hours...we have ton in common.....Heck they didnt even flinch when we said we had 4 cats.......John and the husband even have the same car........and the wife is a professional dog walker/cat sitter..........eeeeeeek
So heres the deal....They are doing a credit check....Johns credit is spotless....but mine on the other hand is quite lack luster....However, they know that I am not the bread winner as I am in school full time, and am not working....so I would assume my credit wouldnt matter as much as Johns.....So as long as there are not hitches...this apartment should be ours.......
But just in case.....can I get a bit of TCS magic.......Just to make sure we do get it.......PLEASE!!!!!!!!........You guys are the best!!!!!!
Anyhoo here are some pics...I didnt get all the rooms...so there will be a bunch later.....(granted that all goes well)
This first Pic is of the Pantry...the sink is in here as you can see, which I thought was very unusual...but very neat
This next pic is of the kitchen....Just your avaerage kitchen...However because of the pantry it is very roomy
This next one is the room that will be our bedroom (the 2nd BR is going to be Johns office, as he works from home).....look at the light the room gets..and those shiny hardwood floors
And here is my fav pic....this is the room that got me to fall in love with this place....well that and the central air.....I took this while standing in the dining room...the room you are looking at in the pic is our living room...couldnt you just die...and yes....that is 5 windows
Sooo please please please pray we get this apartment.......and of course wish us luck...I love u all........I am so HAPPY!!!!!!!
Thanx denise.....Oh yeah and you and the kits are welcome any timeOriginally Posted by turtlecat

haha@ man that's beautiful, is there anyway that the kitties Aunt Neesie could visit? *kidding!*
I know its expensive...But not for Massachusetts...believe me...we are sooo freekin expensive here.........But what makes this place great is that fact that everythings included...and that includes Central air....(which is like the equivilent to gold here)...and a new washer and dryer.....so I'm cool with it.....Originally Posted by Hydroaxe
