Well, it finally happened ... WE SIGNED A LEASE!!! It has taken looking at 20 apartments, dealing with some interesting characters, had 2 places fall through and a few mental breakdowns along the way but we found one amazing apartment and that is all that matters. Shannon and I have a lease with our names on it and I have never had so much satisfaction from merely signing my name, well maybe the first time I ever did it but this is satisfying in a far different way!This experience has allowed us to grow together and learn so much about how each of us operates. This seemed more like a sociology experiment than merely finding an apartment.
The apartment is in the theater district and there are amazing restaurants and shopping, some of my favorite things. Just wanted to announce it finally! If I were to recount the whole thing, no one would believe me haha but this is the story of Katie and Shannon, so it is pretty fitting. At least we have a treasure trove of entertaining tales. Hope 2012 is off to a great start for everyone, I know we could not be happier about the way it is beginning, we are truly blessed!
Best Always,
Kate
Here is a pic of us in front of our door, Apartment 3207!! That is pure elation/exhaustion but it wouldn't mean as much without having gone through all of this together!
Some of us know more than others about the trial and tribulations. However,both of you finally did it and now it's time to make it home and enjoy it.It is well deserved. Now,I cannot wait to see what unique decorating ideas you come up with?
